North bound delays on the Red Line heading towards Broadway. Probably a 10-15 min delay. Not sure why trains frequently struggle through that section. Any answers? @mbta @transitmatters #mbtafail

"A number of MBTA riders have worse commutes today than when @MassGovernor started. That should be a deeply embarrassing fact." Watch our ED @jarjoh on @wbz ↓

@MBTA And if there was a safety emergency what would happen to those bags? People would trip over them!!!

🎒No matter if you're a student heading to class or a worker going into the office, remember that courtesy counts. Please take off your backpack & place it by your side or at your feet to make space for your fellow riders on T vehicles. Learn more tips at mbta.com/rider-etiquette

So there's a lady yelling at everyone at Andrew to take off their backpacks and place them on the floor. @mbta please explain how this is good policy. It's a tripping hazard on standing room only cars and delays ingress and ingress. What about older people? #mbtafail

It seems there is a stretch of track between Andrew and Broadway northbound that isn't working well. Expect a couple minutes of delays. #mbtafail

@MBTACrimes @MBTA Or maybe its because the #MBTA doesn't want CR passengers to see how slow the T is.

If your experiencing inbound delays towards Kenmore that's because there is a train spewing electrical smoke. #mbtafail

@MBTA How is this a good idea? An extension would increase the amount of rail the #MBTA is unable to fix properly, and require additional manpower it doesn't have. Also, would this be an effective transfer for northbound red line riders?

The Red-Blue Connector would extend the Blue Line from its end at Bowdoin to the Red Line's Charles/MGH. As part of our FY24-28 Capital Investment Plan, $29.8 million will go toward planning & 30% design of this significant expansion. 🔗mbta.com/projects/red-b… #BuildingABetterT

@MBTA All that work evening and weekends and the slow zones are still in effect. When are those going to be lifted?

Over the weekend, we continued work on the Red Line Braintree Branch to improve track conditions for safer, more reliable service. Crews replaced wooden ties and stone ballast, which are used to keep the rails in place and support the weight of our trains. #BuildingABetterT

It’s the MBTA’s most popular subway line, its longest, and lately — by many metrics — its worst. Riders say they can feel it. trib.al/cDOgkrQ

The Red Line (Braintree) northbound appears to be terminating at JFK. They just told everyone to get off and use the Ashmont line. #mbtafail

@MBTA @transitmatters what's up with the southbound Braintree line? I just rode from Park St to JFK on the Ashmont line....and the sign still says 20+ minutes. Is the line even running??!!! #mbtafail

@MassGovernor with daily issues on multiple lines how do you expect to get re-elected? Both the Green(B) and Red lines have issues right now. #mbtafail

@MBTA Those shuttles need to go past Babcock. There are people waiting at Amory for trains that aren't coming. #mbtafail

Green Line B Branch Update: Power Department is working on the overhead wire problem at Boston College with no estimated time of restoration. Shuttle Buses continue to replace service between Babcock St and Boston College. twitter.com/MBTA/status/16…

@MBTA @MassDOT @MBTA_CR The T sucks. Why would people want to take it?

#TakeTheT while @MassDOT's Sumner Tunnel is closed through August 31. We're offering reduced fares & parking rates on: • Blue Line • @MBTA_CR Newburyport/Rockport Line • East Boston, Winthrop & Lynn Ferry • SL1 & SL3 • Routes 111, 112, 114, 116, 117 ℹ️mbta.com/Sumner

@mbta How is this OK?!?! Used to be if you missed a train, no worries, next one is in 7-9 minutes. Now it’s 18-20 minutes or longer, during rush hour. Do something to fix this!!!! #mbtafail

@mbta @MassGovernor @transitmatters I just met two friends for dinner in Copley. One drove 41 min home. The other drove 47 mi home. I took the T to Wollaston and got home last. I live a block from the station. WTF. #mbtafail #mbtafail

@MBTA It's not the same train that had an air problem last week is it? O wait that was the Red Line. Different train.

Green Line: Eastbound delays of about 20 minutes due to a Trolley with a brake problem and minor smoke emission at Copley. Trolley is being sent back to the yard for adjustments.

Delays westbound on the Green line due to a delay at Park St. A train has a door problem. #mbtafail

@MBTA Are you sure regular service has resummed and there aren't delays ongoing? We just sat at Wolly for a couple minutes. That usually indicates a continuing delay.

Red Line: Shuttle buses may replace Red Line service between Harvard and Park St. due to disabled maintenance equipment near Central. Efforts are being made to remove the equipment before service begins, but the first trains may be impacted. Updates will be provided.
