Transportation
MTBA
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority subway, or 'T' as it is affectionately called, is one of the best subways in America. It serves most areas of the city and Cambridge, with several lines even running to outlying suburbs. The different routes are identified by different colored lines - Green, Blue, Red and Orange lines.
Bus
Buses cross the metropolitan area and travel farther into suburbs than subway and trolley lines.
Trolley
Trackless trolleys connect the terminal points of the subway lines to destinations in the suburbs, with some routes running through the city. They are powered electronically and departure times are less frequent than on the 'T'.
Train
Boston South and Boston Back Bay stations are connected to Providence, New Haven and New York City by Amtrak rail services.
Taxi and Shuttle
Taxis are plentiful and very convenient. They can be easily hailed on the street and are available around the clock.
Boat
A shuttle boat departs throughout the day from Rowe's Wharf to Logan Airport and also from Long Wharf to Hingham:a unique way to travel in and out of the city.
