TECHi's Take
Should Boston-area companies help foot the bill for the better mass transit service they need to attract and hold onto young employees? A Boston Globe columnist on Friday said yes, and cited New Balance’s funding (to the tune of $14 million to $16 million) of a brand new commuter rail station near its Allston headquarters, a few miles west of downtown Boston.
And two candidates fighting to succeed Boston Mayor Thomas Menino, likewise see private partnerships as critical to improving the cash-strapped MBTA.
