WORCESTER, MA — The Worcester area will have a voice on the MBTA Board of Directors following a new round of appointments made this week by Gov. Maura Healey.
Healey appointed three new board members, including Eric Goodwine, a Shrewsbury resident and vice president for the Worcester Lending Center at Rockland Trust. He was appointed as the public-private finance member of the seven-member board.
Healey also appointed former Lynn mayor Thomas McGee and former Massport CEO Thomas Glynn to the board this week. Although Goodwine is the only board member from the Worcester area, outgoing member Thomas Darling graduated from Clark University.
