Members of the Massachusetts State Senate are on a statewide listening tour with visits scheduled in each of the 40 Senator’s districts.

Each of the nine regional one day stops in the tour includes a session devoted to transportation. It is an attempt to build consensus on a public transportation vision.

The tour came to western Massachusetts Tuesday and WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with Senate President Stan Rosenberg of Amherst.
