We're slightly surprised, so we don't really know what to say. But official word is in: Dan Grabauskas has resigned. The MBTA General Manager had encountered extensive criticism during his tenure. William Mitchell, general counsel for the MBTA, will fill the position until a replacement is found. Fare increase workshops are still on, but the fare changes may undergo further revision given this new development. Either way, Dan will get over $300,000 to resign: the cost of his contract, intended to extend through May.
