Boston’s public transportation system includes rail, water, bus, and subway routes, all integrated into a single network — the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), identified by the letter “T.” The state capital’s subway was built in 1897 and became the first in the United States.
When using this type of transport in Boston, here’s a tip for tourists: buy a ticket not just for one ride but for an entire day (11 USD) or a week (22.50 USD). It’s more economical. The same prices apply to daily and weekly passes for bus and water transport in Boston. Commuter rail fares depend on the zone.
You can find schedules, fares, and route maps for all types of Boston transport here.
