I'll Take the T, Hold the Traffic



There is little time to waste, so let’s get straight to the good stuff. If you are visiting Boston there are a few key pieces of information to consider. First, Boston can be a tough place to navigate and park your vehicle. Therefore, utilizing public transportation, or as the natives refer to it the ‘T’, is not only economical but much quicker than you may imagine. Detailed maps and schedules can be found at the MBTA website. By utilizing public transportation you can cut parking costs and avoid traffic.
