For the first time, the MBTA Commuter Rail will be free to ride on Fridays, all summer long!
The MBTA “free Fridays” is part of a series of promotions taking place:
Governor Healey made the announcement at North Station alongside Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll and Interim Transportation Secretary and MBTA General Manager Phil Eng this morning, where they outlined four promotions that will run on the Commuter Rail through June, July, and August, including Free Fridays, a 50% discount on monthly passes, and more. Monthly passholders will save between $321 and $639 over the summer, depending on their route, shared the MBTA in a press release.
Discounted MBTA Commuter Rail passes
The Governor also shared that “we are discounting Commuter Rail fares and offering free service on Fridays all summer long, saving people hundreds of dollars. The MBTA has made incredible strides to improve service, particularly on the Commuter Rail, and we want as many people as possible to choose public transportation for special events and as part of their daily routine.”
The fare promotions will also help improve efficiency during the busy summer ahead, between the FIFA World Cup and MA250 events slated to take place.
All promotions will begin on the first day of June and run until August 31. Learn more about all of the promotions on the MBTA website.
