Tremont / Columbus Bus Lanes
This project will provide multimodal transportation and safety improvements on Columbus Avenue and Tremont Street between Jackson Square and Ruggles Station.
The Tremont / Columbus Bus Lanes project builds upon the successful implementation of center-running bus lanes in Egleston Square. Phase 2 of this project extends the center-running bus lanes from Jackson Square to Ruggles Station. The project will benefit the 14, 15, 22, 23, 28, 41, 44, and 66 bus routes.

Project Information
The MBTA and City of Boston are working together and with the community. We have refined a concept design for the Tremont Columbus Phase 2 Bus Lanes project.
The proposed concept would extend the existing center-running bus lanes on Columbus Avenue north from Jackson Square to Ruggles Station. The design includes:
- Center platforms with shelters and real-time arrival information
- Redesigned circulation to reduce bus travel times throughout the corridor
- Improvements to pedestrian crossings
- Added green infrastructure to make the area more welcoming for everyone who lives, studies, and travels along the corridor

- Corridor plan: Center Segment between Cedar Street and Roxbury Crossing
- Corridor plan: Northern Segment between Roxbury Crossing and Melnea Cass Boulevard
These concepts were shown publicly at virtual and in-person open houses in May 2023.
