Foxboro Weekday Service Pilot

A Commuter Rail train at Foxboro Station's platform, with an advertisting sign for the Foxboro - Boston weekday pilot in the foreground.

On October 21, 2019, the MBTA launched a year-long pilot to test interest in weekday Commuter Rail service to Foxboro.

Foxboro Station is ideal for area residents who:

  • Live closer to Foxboro Station than their current station
  • Park at a nearby station that has limited spaces

It's just a short drive from:

It’s also great for reverse commuters who drive down from Boston, or for those interested in working in Foxboro. Weekday service offers:

  • An alternative option to driving
  • Access to the area via public transportation for non-drivers
  • A reverse commute fare that's more than half off a regular fare
