Advisories and updates will be posted here for events or construction projects taking place in the South Boston Waterfront that may impact transportation, traffic, parking, and area activity.

  • The MBTA has announced a schedule of extended subway closures in a concerted effort to end all slow zones currently in place. These closures will allow the T to complete all track work, including spot repairs, tie replacements, rail replacement, and ballast replacement. These closures will occur periodically through December 2024 and affect all lines. Check to see if your train is running and view suggested alternatives.

    Note: The Silver Line is not affected by this work.

  • The South Station Air Rights Project will include the long-awaited completion of the South Station Transportation Center. This will create comfortable and convenient transfers to all modes of transit, with direct connections between the rail and bus terminal.

    Construction Update – December 13

  • Construction began during the summer of 2021 on a new station entrance/headhouse to Courthouse Silver Line station. This new headhouse includes a new stair, elevator, and escalator on Seaport Boulevard in front of District Hall. The site perimeter will require pedestrian and bicycle detours into a portion of Seaport Boulevard. Construction is anticipated to be complete in late 2024 and result in a new accessible entrance to the Silver Line in the heart of the Seaport neighborhood.
