Poorly trained staff, a breakdown of communication between T leaders and employees, and missing documentation of inspections are among the reasons the MBTA’s tracks have deteriorated to the point where it is not safe for trains to operate at full speeds, according to a new report.
A licensed professional engineer was hired in March by the Healey administration to conduct a review of the T's track safety inspection procedures, recordkeeping practices and documentation. His review finds the primary cause of the rail's state of disrepair is a lack of clarity about the roles and responsibilities of positions within the MBTA.
RTA will use 67R buses as a replacement for the suspended rail lines. The Blue and Green Line rails will reopen on October 1.
No trams are running between St. Stephen's Green and Beechwood Luas Stops due to necessary works.
