Play from 0:00[0:00]" We've seen. Rather stunning increases in ridership are you seeing I guess complementary increases and -- utilization of the parking facilities -- yes."

Play from 0:09[0:09]" Absolutely overall when you look at them the full compliment of our -- pocket parking lot to parking garage we are seeing an increase in people using them."

Play from 0:18[0:18]" Will argue in terms of capacity right now when you look systemwide."

Play from 0:23[0:23]" It's a very much a line by line or even a garage or parking lot -- parking lot kind of an assessment you know always let folks know that that we've -- hidden GM's at 128 stations in Westwood -- The Anderson. Park facility in Woburn -- garage or even the woodland garage in Newton those. Three locations they give you opportunity to -- that green minor commuter rail or. But -- That don't fill up all the time and you can park there all day for anywhere from two to four dollars."

Play from 0:53[0:53]" In terms of the bigger ones you know and I'm thinking of places like wonderland I'm thinking of places like -- wife are you looking at the possibility. Satellite parking lots are you looking at the possibility of new parking structures."

Play from 1:06[1:06]" encouraging. What we called into the developers for instance the transit joint development a look at opportunities to try to increase parking we -- great news Governor Patrick and secretary Cohen and I were. Able to join now folks up in Beverly date making it -- the money to put us over the top to actually build a new. Our garage up in Beverly -- desperately needed and we also have a number of our partners that he wanted to go to Delhi in terms of municipalities and other businesses in the area that have parking that approximate but we don't control them and it our customers certainly take advantage of but one of the things that I look I is that depending on what liner or what station. One. It means I get frequently and I think it's going to only increases. -- we're looking for more parking and that's why when -- write an opportunity like I have right now not to let folks know that you know maybe this station it's right next to them may have the capacity issue with parking. But there are some other great stations where is that ample parking and that almost never -- up."

Play from 2:03[2:03]" But I got to ask you what about those bigger was -- looking at the possibility of new structures there."

Play from 2:08[2:08]" I'm parking opera is very expensive that structure partner -- to built we do look at the possibility of trying to do that Christians in Beverly put as a good example. We're partnering with the city the state and private developers to well to jointly. Put together the the money necessary to build what it's much needed part in Beverly as -- for instance. We have the in the past at -- difference is that a white. While we built Bill White -- we built it. In such a -- you can add additional tax on top I'd just extremely expensive and so -- you know political for a long term increase in ridership. Maybe we are going to be revisiting her have to revisit some of the key locations and then -- try to increase capacity with more wrap to seal them have been."

Play from 2:53[2:53]" Tell me what the Beverly structure is slated to open cure."

Play from 2:59[2:59]" I don't have the right now we're in the very beginning stated doubted that the -- together work with the city of Beverly and the the state and MBTA were together and try to see what we can do but done the commitment there as. Substantially increase the number of parking spaces I don't have an exact time for. But it will play it again today has people are making that decision with a price of the pomp and looking to take the party and wanting to. Drive to a location when they can -- to sure they're going to have parking only into the great example and we have commuter route coming through their we have buses coming through there."
