The MBTA faced significant challenges on the Blue Line following its reopening after nine days of maintenance work. On Monday morning, travelers experienced delays due to malfunctioning signals. The agency admitted it should have acted more swiftly to address the situation. To alleviate commuter frustration, the MBTA opted to waive fares on the Blue Line and East Boston ferry, highlighting its awareness of the disruption's impact on riders. Service issues led to the reinstatement of shuttle buses, further complicating travel for commuters during the morning rush hours.
The MBTA acknowledged it should have responded sooner to signal problems that caused significant delays on the Blue Line following a service restart after nine days.
As a result of ongoing signal issues, the MBTA decided not to collect fares on the Blue Line and East Boston ferry, providing free transportation on this day.
