No Red Line service, Sat-Sun, January 2-3

The Red Line between Harvard and Alewife will be shut down for repairs this coming Saturday and Sunday, to be replaced with shuttle bus service.

yes, the 96 leaves from the same area of the Harvard busway as the 77, right next to it, in fact.

and, yes, in my experience, if it's all the same to you otherwise, and the timing works out, grabbing a regular bus is usually preferable to dealing with the shuttles. Although this may be different on a weekend.

Sweet, thanks. It looks like the 77 is at 9:30 or 9:40, and the 96 is at 9:35, and I should be there around that general time, so that should all work out perfectly.

Also, keep in mind that the Red Line south of Harvard will have huge delays, since trains will back up waiting to switch tracks and unload a very large crowd.
