advertisement
It’s official: On Dec. 6, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) launched commuter-rail service to the new T.F. Green station in Warwick, R.I.
Located adjacent to T.F. Green International Airport, the station is part of the Rhode Island Department of Transportation’s (RIDOT) and Rhode Island Airport Corp.’s $267 million InterLink project, which included building a consolidated rental car facility, bus hub and parking garage. InterLink opened in late October.
In September, RIDOT signed an operations agreement with MBTA to create the South County Commuter Rail service, expanding service south of Providence. The contract builds on a 1988 agreement between the agencies that launched Providence-to-Boston commuter-rail service.
In late 2011, RIDOT plans to further extend commuter-rail service to Wickford Junction.
