The 138mile long Massachusetts Turnpike, Interstate 90, spans Massachusetts from West Stockbridge on the New York border to Logan AirportRoute 1A in East Boston. The Turnpike is actually two highway systems the original MassPike, which opened in 1957, and the Metropolitan Highway System MHS, which the Massachusetts Legislature created in 1997. The original MassPike portion runs 123 miles between the New York border and Interchanges 14 and 15 at Route 128I95 on the WestonNewton town line. The Boston Extension portion of the MHS, runs for 15 miles between Route 128I95 and Logan AirportRoute 1A, through the Ted Williams Tunnel and the I90 Connector. The Massachusetts Turnpike Authority was created by an act of the Massachusetts Legislature in 1952 and does not receive state or federal tax revenue. The roadway, including the Boston Extension in the MHS and the two tunnels, operates on toll revenue, supplemented with revenue from leasing, development of land and air rights, and advertising.
