Issue Position: Transportation

Issue Position

The 32nd Middlesex District is serviced by commuter rail, subway, and public bus routes. We need a bold, comprehensive, forward-thinking framework that embraces public transportation as a critical lever in ensuring the economic and environmental health of the region. As a daily commuter on the Orange Line, Kate understands this at a personal level.

As a City Councilor, she supported Melrose's successful application for $400K in Complete Street projects, successfully advocated for strategic crosswalk and street signage improvements, and spearheaded an effort to connect families to share in multi-modal school commutes.

As State Representative, she will press for significant state investment in public tranpsortation and initiatives aimed at access, affordability, and quality.
