Use Vehic for 128 Shuttle
Can D Zimmerman use one of our vehics during commuter hrs
for 128-Lex/Waltham shuttle? 7 15 to 10 00+ 4 15 to 7 00+
What if one of ours out, can he still use the extra for the
shuttle? What is LEXPR bkup and where? He needs to have
another bkup vehic avail We do not want to compromise all
we' ve worked so hard for by giving up extra vehic early am as
bkup As the vehs get older this may be more of a prob
Idea supported as long as addendum protects LEXPR
Need comparable bkup based in Lexington Can use comparable
bkup tii ena or that commuter time Must be well marked
Need a termination 30-day notice on that issue
Discussion abt taking people from Lex to Alew first and Alew
to Lex last. May need MBTA permission for that.
