(The Center Square) – When Gov. Maura Healey signed the state’s 2024-25 budget last month, the fiscal plan doubled the amount of money for the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, increasing direct support from $127 million to $314 million.

But Healey also signed an executive order creating a transportation task force to find more ways to find revenue for transit in the state.
