Thanks to the more than 200 individuals who joined our second Virtual Town Hall of 2021 in October to discuss the importance of public transportation for individuals who are blind and visually impaired with representatives from the MBTA. Participants received updates about system-wide accessibility; innovations in customer technology; the new process to obtain a free or reduced fare Charlie Card; and the new RIDE Flex program.
