Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA, or "the T")

  • The "T" is the nickname for Boston's subway and commuter train system
  • The closest "T" station is the Green D line Woodland Station but it is not close enough to walk or ride a bike.
  • The closest commuter rail station is Wellesley Hills on the Framingham/Worcester line (Outbound) that connects you to/from South Station.
  • Note: Public transportation is not recommended for your initial arrival if you have a lot of bags and because it could take quite a long time compared to taxis or rideshare services.
