"Until we feel we have an adequate level of staffing"

"T riders, be warned.

After months of slowdowns, shutdowns, and nearly unprecedented federal intervention, the MBTA said on Wednesday that summer service cuts on the Red, Blue, and Orange Lines are being extended into the fall. The transit agency also said Green Line service will be reduced and bus service will be trimmed further starting Aug. 28.

The moves mean T riders will have to endure more infrequent trains and buses just as students are starting classes and many workers are considering, or being required to make, a post-Labor Day return to downtown offices."
