Transit Access
Arlington does not have rapid transit or commuter rail stops but does have bus service. Most bus routes run
through east-west corridors along Massachusetts Avenue, Broadway, and Summer Street, or along the town’s
southern border parallel to Route 2, though a few routes also run along north-south streets including Park Avenue,
Pleasant Street, and Medford Street. Most bus routes in Arlington connect to the Red Line at Alewife Station, just
south of Arlington’s border with Cambridge; the others connect to other Red Line Stations or to the Green Line at
Lechmere. These short connections to the region’s rapid transit lines make Arlington relatively well positioned for
transit access, particularly with the recent addition of a priority bus lane along Massachusetts Avenue.
