EZRide Shuttle - Two-day Detour in Cambridgeport May 12 & 13

Due to unforeseen difficulties in street reconstruction, Brookline Street will remain closed to EZRide Shuttle for at least the next two weeks. In order to accommodate this construction, EZRide Shuttle will remain on detour through at least the end of May.

EZRide will detour by turning left onto Erie Street from Sidney Street instead of its typical right turn. The buses will return to regular route at the Landsdowne Street stops via Erie, Albany, and Pacific, Sidney and Pilgrim Streets. This is the same detour used during earlier road closures.

EZRide stops at Fort Washington (Erie at Sidney Streets), Cambridgeport (Brookline at Erie Streets), and Pacific Street (at Landsdowne Street) will be affected as follows:

Fort Washington: Stop moves across Sidney Street to the opposite side of the intersection.. The stop will be on Erie Street, outside of 200 Sidney Street.

Cambridgeport: There will be NO SERVICE at this stop during the detour. Customers at this stop should walk to the Fort Washington temporary stop at Sidney and Erie Streets (in front of 200 Sidney Street) for all service.

Pacific Street (MIT's Sidney Pacific Dorm): Outbound stop remains in place, and all inbound service will board at the Outbound stop as well.

We anticipate resuming normal service during the first week of June. An announcement will be sent when normal service resumes.

These stop changes are TEMPORARY.

We appreciate your understanding and patience during this detour.
