Your Commute: Spotlight on Danvers


On April 7th, the North Shore TMA supported MassPIRG and North Shore Community College in their effort to promote the need for more transit options to the Hathorne area of Danvers, which is home to a growing number of diverse businesses, institutions, and residential developments. Hathorne is accessible to Route 1, I-95 and Route 62 but currently, the only way to access it is via car.

Andrea Leary, Executive Director of the North Shore TMA noted that the TMA will work with the North Shore Community College to conduct focus groups and surveys during April to get a better understanding of commuting patterns.

MassCommute Annual Report

 
The North Shore TMA is a part of a 12-member statewide coalition of transportation organizations called MassCommute. Collectively, these organizations work with both the private and public sectors to provide better transportation options to employees across the Commonwealth. MassCommute had an incredible impact on the number of employees it served, fuel costs it saved and CO2 emissions it reduced in last year. The 2014 MassCommute Annual Report is now available.
