[bscb-announce] MBTA Hearing in Boston TODAY, Attleboro Tuesday, Salem Wednesday

[Rick Morin]

Hi all,
The MBTA Hearings regarding the proposed fare increases and service cuts
continue this week. We urge you to attend these meetings and testify to what
these proposals mean to you. While BSCB is developing a position as an
organization representing the blindness community, your individual testimony
is extremely powerful and necessary. The MBTA has posted detailed
information about the proposals and hearing schedules at
<http://www.mbta.com/jointhediscussion> www.mbta.com/jointhediscussion. The
MBTA has made most materials accessible with alternate formats. You may
download an audio version of the information booklet produced at the Perkins
BTBL at

year are now available at our website at  <http://www.acb.org/baystate>
