Cohasset Select Board unanimously approves MBTA bus stop on Route 714. The Board backed the Bus Stop Safety and Accessibility Project, installing one fixed stop at Nantasket Avenue and Eastman Road under a 2025-2027 regional pilot spanning Cohasset, Hingham, and Hull. Hull is funding $130,000 of construction; Cohasset has no financial obligation.
