A communication from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (see item 1596-2405 of Section 2F of Chapter 140 of the Acts of 2024) submitting its Income Eligible Fare report for fiscal year 2024

HD 5350 is a procedural bill submitting Massachusetts Department of Transportation's (MassDOT) Income Eligible Fare (IEF) report for fiscal year 2024, as required by Section 2F of Chapter 140 of the Acts of 2024. This report details enrollment and usage of the IEF program, which provides reduced fares for low-income riders on public transit. The bill itself does not create new policy but fulfills a statutory reporting obligation to the legislature. It directly affects MassDOT, which must submit this annual report.
