Parking lot size

Absolutely none of the available sources agree about the history of the parking lot size.

SRPEDD and the 9/30/1997 Globe say 400 spaces. The 3/28/1999 Globe says 400 with 300 more planned.
11/21/1999 Globe says 432 spaces, with 340 more planned (ie 772 total). That source has some definitely incorrect numbers for other stations, so I hardly trust it.
11/12/2000 Globe says 215 opened on 11/6/2000. That may have been the larger of the two-part expansion.
SRPRDD and 2001-02 MBTA website say 864 spaces. 2003-06 MBTA website says 853 spaces.
11/13/2003 Globe says a 100-space dirt lot was closed, but aerials show it in use until at least 2005.
SRPEDD claims a post-Big-Dog reduction to 735 spaces.
MBTA website has said 769 spaces since 2010.

I've updated the article as best as I can with what isn't in dispute. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 06:50, 7 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Middleborough/Lakeville station is an MBTA Commuter Rail" - Why 'an' MBTA? Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 13:10, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

- Passenger counts, fare zone, and parking fees typically aren't mentioned in the prose unless they're notable for some reason. I've added the (rather high) passenger count to the prose, and cited the other two in the infobox.
Also, mention something about fare zone in body with citation Saha ❯❯❯ Stay safe 16:07, 31 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
