Officials to attend South Coast Rail ribbon cutting for the new Freetown Station
South Coast Rail is one step closer to reality in the Fall River area.
Governor Charlie Baker and Lt. Governor Karyn Polito will join Secretary of Transportation Jamey Tesler and state and local officials at an event celebrating the Baker-Polito Administration’s progress in advancing the South Coast Rail project, including a ribbon cutting for the new Freetown Station.
The ribbon cutting will be taking place this morning.
Both Fall River and New Bedford voters approved joining the MBTA in November, paving the way for the train in both cities.
Phase 1 of the project connecting the South Coast to Boston is scheduled to be completed late next year.
