Transportation

MBTA

The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), commonly referred to as "the T," is the primary public agency overseeing public transportation in the Greater Boston area of Massachusetts. The MBTA's extensive transit network encompasses three metro lines (Blue, Orange, and Red lines), two light rail lines (Green and Ashmont–Mattapan lines), and a comprehensive five-line bus rapid transit system (Silver Line). Additionally, the MBTA operates local and express bus services, a twelve-line Commuter Rail system, and various ferry routes.

MassArt students are eligible for the MBTA Semester Pass Program each semester. Students receive a discount by purchasing their pass for the semester. This program is encouraged for students who will be commuting or riding the MBTA frequently (4 days a week or more). Charlie Cards are available for students who want to load transit value as needed.
