Tufts Daily - Green Line extension costs to top $1 billion

The plan to bring the T’s Green Line to Tufts is feeling some growing pains.

Completion of the Green Line extension project is facing delays of up to six years from its 2014 deadline, and its price tag continues to grow.


Officials this summer raised the project’s estimated price tag to over $1 billion. The cost of the project’s first six stops, which will culminate near Tufts at College Avenue, rose from $600 billion to $934 billion this summer. A seventh stop was added to the plan in February, and summer estimates put its price tag at $130 million
