MBTA's Green Line speed restrictions persist despite optimism.

The MBTA has identified 30 speed limit signs that need to be relocated on the Green Line, and that work is taking place today. As a result, the global speed restriction will remain in place until this manual process is completed, causing continued disruption to service for riders. The T had previously announced it would lift the "global" speed restrictions but keep in place new speed restrictions in certain track "blocks" until inspectors could go over those stretches and track workers could fix any problems they identified.
