On August 19, 2022, the MBTA's Orange Line shut down for a month of safety repair work. The City of Boston took a cross-departmental approach while working closely with the MBTA, regional partners, and commuters. Our goal was to aid in planning and ongoing monitoring of alternative shuttles and diversions.
