Show Notes

Boston City Council members, including Council President Liz Breadon and Councilor Sharon Durkan, are pushing for transparency from Mayor Michelle Wus administration regarding delays in key transportation projects. Wus requirement for personal sign-off on most transit and road safety initiatives has led to slowed or halted efforts, including sidewalk repairs and major corridor projects. The councilors, who usually support Wu, are concerned about the risk of losing $200 million in state and federal funding for projects like MBTA upgrades. The city has also recently lost its top streets official, Jascha Franklin-Hodge. Hearings are planned to align priorities and prevent losing vital funds during tough economic times.
