D Line reopening ahead of schedule
This Saturday as opposed to Monday, per The Boston Globe.
This will certainly ease the coming weekend of hell brought about by several Red Sox games, college move-ins and Labor Day tourist traffic.
Trains will be able to run faster, and the handicapped-accessible Breda trolleys should theoretically be able to traverse the line at full speed without derailing now that the track renovations are complete. The T expects the latter to enter service on the D Line by the end of the year.
The news isn't all good however. Renovation projects at Longwood and Brookline Village stations will not be finished until next Spring.
Glad to hear that the D-Line will be opening early.
I know that the construction and renovations are/were necessary, but it sure is a mess for people who are obliged to use it on a regular basis, or even on a not-so-regular basis.
