Posted on Author NorthEndWaterfront.comComments Off on Pedestrian Walkway Opening at North Station on May 1

The MBTA has announced that on May 1, 2017, the pedestrian route for customers transferring from the Green and Orange Line exists at Causeway and Beverly streets into North Station Commuter Rail platform areas will be moved slightly to accommodate ongoing construction work. After crossing Causeway Street, pedestrians will use a protected walkway along the east side of Legends Way, directly abutting Portal Park. The walkway will include a barrier and kick plate for blind and low-vision passengers.

Rerouting of pedestrian traffic at North Station comes as a result of the Hub on Causeway, a mixed-use development project with construction taking place adjacent to TD Garden and North Station.
