Have you seen the ceiling in Back Bay at the orange line concourse? It’s absolutely insane

It's remarkable how the MBTA, after all of these years, have never been able to fully waterproof all of their underground stations. It's almost as if they want them to be a steady mess and in need of constant repair. Shades of how they are unable to use more durable asphalt when paving the roads in this area.

That’s very nice of you but I’m a lady.

When I was young my father told me all things come around and one day men would lay down their coats on puddles for ladies again. Sounds like you tried, sir.

That area has leaked and puddled long before both stations were renovated. It's not going away anytime soon.

Greatttt🙄 I’m so excited to see it when I’m at North station today bc every time I’m there I’m confused why the puddle is still there and nothing has been done ab it. Glad to know it’s still there and i haven’t been to north station in a week

Huh? I’m not saying the OP should’ve known better, I’m saying that this is ridiculous that the puddle has been there so long and the MBTA does nothing about it.

Lol, I ate it in the Back Bay/Copley Orange line tunnel last night. The worst part was that it wasn't just water, but the weird oil that seeps out of the plastics they use for that flooring when it's slightly damp or humid out. I was covered in the slime/grease for my entire commute home. Very gross. Thanks MBTA for another beautiful commuting memory!

You should. Like Casey Neistats bike lane video. I generally feel like attacking the mbta rn is kicking a dog while it's down. Not all the problems are solely due to poor management and the mbta is working hard to fix a lot of things but it seems like an endless battle. Hopefully some kind of exposé could help put pressure on the right people to take this a little more seriously. People are getting hurt and enough is enough

If you do, be careful while you do it. I said I was fine earlier but now I’m feeling sore up and down the leg I fell on.

This kinda makes me want to record a video showing all the hazards on a typical commute. Wet floors, crumbling ceilings, rusty metal, eroded/broken stairs… Stuff is in such bad shape. Glad you are ok OP.

Your comment is not helpful in the least. So not needed.

It’s gotten progressively worse as the days go on. I remember it being not so bad the other day.

This puddle has literally been there for well over a week

Oh that is great. Yeah, I'm remote now but occasionally go in (I work in non profit) and I'm wearing cute sweatsuits 😂 it's almost like dress codes are mostly bullshit 😂. But yeah have a better day.

Thank you! Already in my warm layers. Thankfully my job is lowkey in dress code so I can be in leggings and sweatpants.

Yeah, with the resources the T has today, it doesn’t seem possible for them to overcome this. It’s gotta go higher up the chain, which means convincing voters and lawmakers who may not comprehend how dire things are because they don’t ride the T.
