MBTA General Manager Phillip Eng says "we are making progress" fixing the T 

He’s been on the job for only eight months, but MBTA General Manager Phil Eng thinks the troubled transit system has finally turned the corner. Appearing on Boston Public Radio and taking questions from the audience, Eng said progress is being made despite continuing negative press about problems he inherited.
“People do need to hear when we have challenges,” he said, “but people also need to hear that we are making progress. And we really are.”
Eng cited repairs to the Blue Line, which allowed for more frequent trains, ahead of the summer-long closing of the Sumner Tunnel. He also said recent work on the Red Line’s Ashmont Branch and along the Green Line in downtown Boston means more than two dozen longstanding slow zones could be eliminated. And there is a plan to lift speed restrictions systemwide by the end of 2024.
