An Act relative to establishing the science corridor

This bill requires the Massachusetts Department of Transportation to study options for a future bus rapid transit route connecting Kendall Square (Cambridge), Allston, North Brighton, and the Longwood Medical Area (Boston). The assessment must evaluate infrastructure needs, analyze using existing road space, review nearby transportation projects, and estimate economic benefits for the region and state. The DOT must submit a final report with route recommendations to state legislative committees by July 31, 2022, but does not fund or build the transit service itself. The study directly affects these specific neighborhoods and their future transportation planning.
