Furcolo Defends Signing Tramway Bill in Boston
Gov. Furcolo defended his signing of the Greylack Tramway amendment and urged that state backing for private bond interest be considered. He suggested the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority could seek state aid for extending tolls, calling the issue a potential precedent and noting the tramway would cost up to 1500000 dollars in annual interest if bonds defaulted. He warned a backer’s guarantee could be risky but economically justifiable for the region. A special session may be called to address resumed Old Colony service or other budget matters amid a 22 million cut to the governor’s 454 million plan.
