[PAWTUCKET STATION THREATENED]

There will be a public presentation tonight at 7:00 P.M. at the Blackstone Valley Visitors Center (the old Peerless Building), 175 Main Street in Pawtucket. Vanasse Hangen Brustlin will present the findings of its alternatives analysis for the feasibility of restoring commuter rail service to Pawtucket and the location of the station.

If the issue is gaining the necessary space for 18 of the 73 required parking spaces for the site, couldn't Pawtucket and Central Falls agree to issue a waiver to allow fewer spaces? Given the location of the site, there would be a large portion of walking trips, there is already ample on-street parking, and the inclusion of an MBTA station would mean more auto-free trips.
