The resident's idea, as submitted

The idea

Back Bay station is a major hub, serving both MBTA and Amtrak. It is currently in need of clean up. The area is gross, unattractive and swarming with pigeons. Improving the station would improve transit in Boston.

Who it helps and why

Cleaning up Back Bay station would help the overall Boston transit system, and make using public transit more accessible and appealing. I believe better transit advances social equity, making the city and its resources more usable for all, and reduces environmental impacts which is good for all residents.
