MBTA next week turns on bus cameras to catch motorists who block bus stops and lanes

The MBTA says that on Oct. 1,  it will turn on bus-based cameras that can mean tickets for miscreant motorists who don't respect bus stops and bus lanes enough to stay out of them. Read more.

Blue Line ride no piece of cake when problems start at daybreak

Bright and early at 5:47 a.m., the MBTA announced bustitution between Airport and Government Center due to a dead train near Maverick. At 7:25, the T reported the train had been shoved out of the way and normal service was resuming. Until, that is, 8:15 a.m., when delays started due to a signal problem at Government Center.

Of course, the aboveground Blue Line isn't the only T line that can have problems with overhead power wires. The MBTA had to resort to bustitution on the Green Line between Newton Highlands and Riverside this morning due to "an overhead wire problem" at Riverside. The T declared the catenary problem fixed shortly after 11 a.m. Read more.

So what else could go wrong on the Blue Line beside the bedeviled overhead power wire at Orient Heights? The MBTA is now reporting delays of "more than 30 minutes" due to a train that joined the choir eternal around 6:30 p.m. at Maverick. "Riders can use the SL3 bus or the East Boston Ferry for alternate service," the T says.
