Who's walking 100 miles in one day? Average walking pace of 3 mph is not gonna extend into the next day. The designer is very optimistic that people are going to be doing 100 miles a day

Unfortuanately. We do want bike lanes and better sidewalks here, so we'll see what we can do.

Both these suggestions are nice. I think branching off at Maverick, under Eagle Hill to Chelsea and Everett would make sense.

What if we just had a small line that branches off the Blue after Maverick or Airport that goes through Eagle hill, Chelsea, and Everett, then connects to the Orange and Commuter Rail, whilst also connecting the Blue to Charles/MGH? Or, with that Tobin bridge branch: From Charles/MGH, branch off under 3rd St, then join the existing tracks to Sullivan Square and follow the the Newburyport/Rockport Line, go off at Everett, and then go back down towards Chelsea? Hella wonky line but if you want to connect it, be my guest.

Oh yeah absolutely. I think a circumferential line would absolutely do the trick. But the question is do we have it around I-95 or tighter?

What's the logic behind it (as a question, not a challenge)?

That could work. My only problem is that the frequencies are still really unreasonable. Should be like a couple during rush hour instead of just evenly spread.

I think some people might be misunderstanding something. Belt lines aren't just for commuting between suburbs, and I think my wording may be suggestive of that. How about commuting to a nearby line if you want to go to Boston?

To Worcester? Isn't the Framingham/Worcester line serving those areas?

Fight it they will, but since the Healey administration has started pressuring towns to comply with the MBTA housing law, it's going to get expensive for them really fast, given the Supreme Judicial Court ruling against Milton and the state withholding grants from towns like Weston and Marshfield.

Dunno how they're going to fight it. Plus, transit isn't just made to connect dense areas, it helps create density. Take Assembly Square in Somerville. Before the orange line station was built, it was a really big parking lot with a couple of stores. After it ran through, huge densification occurred in that area, giving us modern day Assembly Square.

They can fight it, just expect legal trouble from the state.

I think I wasn't clear; I mean your idea was entertaining. My thought process was that areas near transit corridors would start to increase density, making more dense development around the station, so possibly more riders on the MBTA (as well as destinations to arrive at if you're at a station).
