I really hope that we will get a Hubway in Magoun. I used to have a membership that i cancelled because without hubway in Magoun it was almost useless. Also I think that Magoun is a much better place to have a hubway station than Ball Square.

I really hope that they put Hubway in Magoun. I used to have a membership but it was useless without having a Station in Magoun. I would definitely sign up again if there was a station there. Hugo
