Bus Replacement On Red Line Between Park Street and Kendall/MIT Stations

Effective at 9:00 p.m. Friday, July 7th, through the end of service on Sunday, July 9th, bus shuttle service will replace Red Line service between Park Street and Kendall/MIT Stations. This bus replacement service will allow the T’s contractor, Barletta Heavy Division access to the Red Line viaduct at Charles/MGH Station to perform necessary work.

At least they picked a relatively quiet weekend this time. Originally this shutdown was scheduled for June 9-11, right after MIT and Harvard commencements, a weekend that included the Gay Pride march and four Red Sox home games against the Rangers. Someone with sense prevailed upon the T to postpone that shutdown, so we're having it this weekend instead.

If you possibly can, try to take the commuter train to and from Porter Square instead.

Oh suction. It's almost easier to walk from Kendall to Park than wait for the buses (of which there are never enough). Think I'll just hide in Davis all weekend.

Or you could take the commuter train, or one of the buses to Lechmere, or ride a bike. I'm glad this isn't happening on ArtBeat weekend.

Especially since the T@F one-act festival is up during ArtBeat. Thst would be a problem for us.
