This document details the MBTA's proposed FY27-31 Capital Investment Plan (CIP), a fiscally constrained 5-year strategy focused on improving reliability, modernizing the system, and expanding service. Key investments outlined include signal system modernization, track programmed maintenance, regional rail infrastructure, bus fleet upgrades, and ferry system renewals. The plan also prioritizes major projects like the Northstation Draw One bridge replacement, Green Line vehicle procurement, and the Greenline Core Capacity Program. While addressing a significant state of good repair backlog, the plan acknowledges funding limitations, particularly for additional expansion projects and the full scope of Green Line core capacity improvements.
