Baker's Pick For Transportation Chief Draws Praise

Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker has filled one of the key remaining positions in his cabinet with the appointment of Stephanie Pollack as Secretary of Transportation.  Pollack spent the last nine years as associate director of research at the Dukakis Center for Urban and Regional Policy at Northeastern University.  WAMC’s Paul Tuthill spoke with Kristina Egan, director of the advocacy group Transportation for Massachusetts about the Pollack appointment and her organization’s new report on the state’s transportation priorities.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
