MBTA just awarded a contract to build the South Coast Phase 1 project that will extend service to Fall River, MA.

This following Mass Transit article has more information. I believe the "12 miles of Secondary track" is the distance from the station on the north side of Fall River north/northeast through Freetown, Myricks and north to the somewhere near the rail junction soith of Taunton.
