Public Meeting | Arborway Bus Maintenance Facility - 15% Update (In-Person)

Meeting Info

Date: October 24, 2023 at 6 PM - 8 PM

Location: The English High School - Auditorium • 144 McBride St • Boston, MA

Attendees: General Public

Event Description

The MBTA is designing the facility to support a 100% battery electric bus (BEB) fleet. BEBs will reduce emissions and improve the air quality around the facility and routes served. The new facility will expand the fleet size to serve additional routes in Roxbury, Dorchester, and Mattapan. This will provide capacity for 60-foot buses that carry greater numbers of riders on busy routes.

The new facility will be located next to the existing facility, at the corner of Washington Street and Arborway in Boston, next to Forest Hills station where many routes start.

At this meeting, MBTA project staff in collaboration with the City of Boston will provide an update on the design plans for the site based on feedback received at the last public meeting in June. The MBTA will also facilitate a Q&A period to engage and listen to community feedback.
