Planning the future of water transportation in the Commonwealth.
Description: The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) is leading a study to plan and design the next iteration of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) water transportation network. The study will identify:
Potential improvements to existing ferry routes and infrastructure
New routes and terminal locations to explore
Multimodal access improvements to current and potential ferry terminal locations
Upgrades to improve the ferry experience for all riders
This study is a collaborative effort with the MBTA, the public, elected officials, local and regional staff, and other stakeholders. As a result of this study, recommendations may include locations for new ferry routes, terminals, and facilities.
