flag The MBTA is modernizing regional rail with new trains, electrification, and better stations to improve service across MA and RI.

flag The MBTA is advancing a Rail Modernization Strategy to enhance regional rail service across Massachusetts and parts of Rhode Island, focusing on increased frequency, reliability, and accessibility. flag Key initiatives include addressing infrastructure bottlenecks, introducing level boarding at stations, acquiring new locomotives, and implementing electrification through overhead catenary and charging systems. flag The plan aims to support climate goals, economic development, and improved commutes, with 64% of Massachusetts residents and 39% of Rhode Islanders living within three miles of a station. flag Public input will be gathered through in-person and virtual meetings, with details available at MBTA.com/RailModernization.
