The Town of Natick is asking users, potential users and neighbors of the MBTA Station in Natick Center to weigh in with your concerns and priorities for a future rail station. Your views and suggestions matter!

The Town has funded a feasibility study to identify issues and propose solutions, including alternative station concepts to be proposed in the Spring of 2014, and to then assist the Town with funding proposals so that an improved station may some day become a reality. 

This work is being done in cooperation with the MBTA Station Advisory Committee, established by the Board of Selectmen in January 2013. To learn more, please visit www.natickma.gov/mbta.
