On Sunday, March 15th, most South Station Lines will operate on a modified weekend schedule to accommodate increased ridership for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade in South Boston. Passengers can expect larger crowds and longer queues.
The MBTA and Keolis urge riders to celebrate responsibly, leave their vehicles at home, take public transportation to festivities, and follow these safety tips: • Alcohol consumption and/or unruly behavior will not be tolerated on the MBTA. • Secure personal belongings, especially in crowded areas. If wearing a backpack, remove it and hold it at your side or set it between your feet. Leave large items like coolers at home. • Let riders off the trains before boarding. • Travel without bikes. Bikes (including folding bikes) are not allowed on the MBTA at any time the day of the parade. • Report any suspicious activity or individuals in distress to the nearest police officer, call the Transit Police at 617-222-1212, or dial 911. • Download the MBTA See Say App to quickly and discreetly report suspicious activity to Transit Police. Using this app, riders can send Transit Police pictures, text messages, and locations of suspicious activity. • Follow the instructions of MBTA Transit Police officers and staff who are there to ensure everyone’s safety. • Take care of yourself and others. Seek medical attention when necessary.
