Current Service Alerts
Green Line E: Service is suspended between Government Center and Heath Street through Friday, June 5, for infrastructure upgrades. Regular B, C, and D Branch service is operating.
🧑🔧 Service to Medford/Tufts: Riders traveling to Medford/Tufts will need to transfer to an E Branch train at Government Center. Alternate Service: Riders can use Route 39 bus between Copley and Heath Street, which will be enhanced with more frequent service. Travel Time: Riders using the Route 39 should budget ample extra travel time. For example, a rider travelling to Government Center from Heath Street should budget at least an additional 10 minutes of travel in additional to their regular commute. Affected stations: Government Center Park Street Boylston Arlington Copley Prudential Symphony Northeastern University Museum of Fine Arts Longwood Medical Area Brigham Circle Fenwood Road Mission Park Riverway Back of the Hill Heath Street
Green Line E Branch: Symphony station will be closed for major accessibility upgrades beginning June 6. Riders can use Prudential or Northeastern to access E Branch service. Construction is expected to last approximately 3 years.
🚧 Alternate Service Options: • Riders who typically board or disembark at Symphony can instead board or disembark at Northeastern University or Prudential, which are 0.3 miles away (or about a five-minute walk) from Symphony. • Riders are encouraged to instead consider travelling on the Orange Line at Massachusetts Avenue, which is 0.1 miles (or about a three-minute walk) from Symphony. • Riders may also use the Route 39, which operates parallel to the E branch in both directions along Huntington Avenue. Background: Currently, there are no step-free pathways from the entrances to the platforms at Symphony, and the station is not able to be accessed by people with wheeled mobility devices. When construction is complete in spring 2029, Symphony will be enhanced with four new accessible elevators, raised platforms for easier boarding, accessible bathrooms, improved wayfinding, more lighting, and upgraded safety features, making the station safer and easier to use for all riders. Affected stations: Symphony
