Transportation Leaders Seek Public Discussion on Services
“You Move Massachusetts” Outreach Sets Ten Workshops StatewideThe Massachusetts Executive Office of Transportation is holding a series of public workshops as part of its youMove Massachusetts civic engagement effort on transportation.
The primary purpose of the workshops is to learn from residents about their observations, experiences, and challenges using the roads, rails, and trails of Massachusetts.
“We want to hear broadly from the residents and workers of the Commonwealth along with business owners and visitors about their experiences using the transportation system and would encourage transportation systems users to attend and make their voices heard,” says Transportation Secretary Bernard Cohen.
