So I noticed that the escalators that takes you from street level to the gates at Porter Station are shut down due to schedualed maintance. Not a huge deal except that the sign indicates that it will shut down until DEC 10th! How long does it take to fix an escalator. I think you could build a new one in that amount of time. In fact I think that you could design and build from a scratch a new metheod of passenger mobility that runs 100% on recycled Charlie Cards in that amount of time! In the mean time in stead of turning the "up" escalator into a down one in the morning, and reversing it at say around 12, they funnel all the morning commuters down one narrow stairway!
Readers have left 4 comments.  1. BonesWhat a crock! Seriously, between this and the previous rant about how much money they are losing, you just have to wonder who on earth is running that operation. 3. #1 red sox fan recycled charlie cards is a great idea. Very green! 4. Chris red sox fan, I think he's implying that we'd burn the charlie cards in a giant bonfire to generate energy for moving passengers around. Very un-green. burning plastic is bad for the environment. |
