The Boston Transportation Department (BTD) adopted new City of Boston Traffic Rules and Regulations on March 1, 2025.

These traffic rules and regulations were adopted under the authority granted by Chapter 263 of the Acts of the Massachusetts Legislature of 1929, as amended, and other applicable laws.

With the exception of the new violation fines and late penalty fees associated with the new rules and regulations specific to electric vehicles, we did not introduce new fines or fees as detailed in Boston Municipal Code, Chapter VI General Services, Section 6-6 Office of the Parking Clerk, sub-section 6-6.3 Schedule of Fines
