A common occurrence on Centre Street – the #39 bus blocking off traffic with it’s ginormous articulating body. It’s a damn good thing they pulled up those railroad tracks! There was a nearly bloody feud in Jamaica Plain regarding whether or not to bring back the MBTA E Line to Centre Street several years back. The Skeetches without won and the tracks were eventually removed or paved over. The big argument against was the increased traffic and lack of parking. It’s clear these huge busses are a big help in alleviating traffic. Even if the trolley had eliminated parking – who cares! Walk it! I’m gonna catch hell for this one – but I had to say it!
