“We’re pleased to now offer a companion MBTA Go app for Android users,” said General Manager and CEO Eng. “Riders deserve quality and accurate real-time information to plan their journeys, and this app is just one more component of our wider effort to continuously improve communications. MBTA Go is a great, free mobile tool for riders to plan their travels, and we hope the public continues to let us know of new features they’d like to see that can make the app even better. Public feedback continues to be critical as we develop rider-centered tools that improve the customer experience like MBTA Go.” As of February 25, Android users can now download the MBTA Go app - the official mobile app for live service info.

The MBTA is the largest transit provider in New England, and the fifth largest in the country. The MBTA directly operates or contracts out for service using eight different modes: heavy rail, light rail, bus rapid transit, local/express bus, trackless trolley, commuter rail, commuter boat, and paratransit. In Boston, 55% of all work trips and 42% of all trips into downtown are made by transit. The MBTA district is made up of 175 communities with a total population of 4.7 million.

“Under the leadership of the Healey-Driscoll Administration, we continue to improve mass transportation across our network to make it the preferred choice of travel. Delivering new rail service to the communities as part of South Coast Rail is another example of our workforce fulfilling commitments made to the public. The MBTA is proud to be in this position working collaboratively with the Federal Railroad Administration as we now seek their approval to begin passenger train service at the end of March ahead of our May target. This will allow communities in Boston, southeastern Massachusetts, and many in between to connect by train for the first time in decades,” said General Manager and CEO Eng. “We sincerely appreciate the patience and support from stakeholders and community members as we performed train testing and conductor training. The residents of the Commonwealth and all of its visitors deserve this service, and I couldn’t be more grateful to the many teams at the MBTA and our industry partners who are making this a reality.” We are pleased to announce that MBTA Commuter Rail service on South Coast Rail will begin on March 24, 2025, pending final approval from the Federal Railroad Administration.

“The MBTA has great municipal partners who continue to collaborate with us on improving bus services, and we’re grateful to the City of Boston for building on the success of the 2019 Brighton Avenue bus lane project to add Transit Signal Priority to the bus lane corridor,” said General Manager and CEO Eng. “This will add to the reliability benefits already felt by riders on Routes 57 and 66 every day, improve bus service for the community, and bring riders to their destinations more quickly. We thank Boston for their partnership.” Learn more about our partnership with the City of Boston to expand transit signal priority city-wide for improved service reliability and trips times for our bus riders: https://ow.ly/XnGl50UNWFn #BuildingABetterT #MBTA #Boston #Bus
