Political and Institutional Analysis of Boston's Central Artery/Tunnel Project
Conventioal wisdom holds that the era of major downtown highway projects is over--the victim of gridlocked local political systems, fiscal austerity, and ardent opposition from both neighborhoods and environmentalists. Historically, these forces were particularly strong in the Boston metropolitan area. Yet today -- at a cost of almost $10 billion -- Massachusetts is replacing Boston's existing elevated Central Artery with an underground highway and building a third harbor tunnel from the city's downtown to the region's major airport. This report documents how the regions's political leaders developed and sustained a broad coalition in support of the project and analyzes this history to suggest important lessons on about how to plan, finance, and manage and complex urban transportation project in an era of environmentalism, neighborhood activism, and fiscal austerity.
