Traffic Advisory for Sunday, July 30, 2017

The Puerto Rican Parade will take place on Sunday, July 30, 2017.  People attending the event are encouraged not to drive their personal vehicles into the City.  Information on Hubway, the regional bike-share service, may be found at www.thehubway.com and information on the MBTA may be found at www.mbta.com.  For a faster return trip, the MBTA advises riders to purchase a round trip rather than a one-way ticket.  Walking is also a great way to get around Boston.
