Stage 2 construction

Tunney's Pasture and Dominion stations

The Transitway between Tunney's Pasture and Dominion stations will permanently close.

Westboro Station stops 1A, 1B, 2A, 4A will be closed and routes will service new stops Westboro A and B on the newly extended Scott Street.

Transitioning portions of the Transitway for Stage 2 involves some preparatory work. As a result, short-term detours will also be required a few days before.

Iris Street to Navaho Drive

The Transitway between Iris Street and Navaho Drive will permanently close.

Iris 2A platform will be relocated to the west along the south curb of the Transitway, across from Iris 1A. Several routes will be affected.

Transitioning the Transitway for new service involves relocating Iris 2A. As a result, short-term detours will also be required during the weeks surrounding the service change date.

These adjustments reflect seasonal changes in ridership and improvements to service for our customers. Some trip times will be adjusted throughout the network for improved scheduling efficiency.
