More Troubles With The T

The MBTA says it's investigating why a Red Line car jumped the tracks at the Broadway station in South Boston Tuesday.

That incident comes on the heels of the Back Bay station escalator suddenly reversing direction on Sunday, sending dozens of people falling backwards like dominoes, according to eyewitnesses. Nine people were sent to the hospital following that incident.

All of this begs the question, what is going on with the T?

We discuss with former Massachusetts Secretary of Transportation Jim Aloisi, now a board member of the group Transit Matters, Dan McNichol, infrastructure advocate and former chief spokesperson for the Big Dig, and Mela Bush Miles, director of transit-oriented development and the T Riders Union at Alternatives for Environment and Community.
