Five years of ION… what will the next five years hold? We expect more growth and more connections to benefit people across this community. When we build Stage 2 to @CityofCambridge, ION will tie our three cities together, making it easier for you to travel throughout the region.
Happy 5th to the @GRT_ROW ION! When we launched light rail in 2019, we knew it would be more than just good transportation. ION transformed our community - it’s led to new homes, new businesses…over $5 billion in development has been invested so far along the transit corridor!
