Transportation

Public transportation is a very important issue,
especially since parking at the medical school is scarce. The closest T
stops to HMS are Longwood Ave (Green Line, D branch) and Brigham Circle
(Green Line, E branch). Buses that have stops around the Longwood
Medical Area include Routes 39, 66, 47, 8, 60, 65, CT2, and CT3. Also
see info about M2 shuttle below.

Buses and the T (subway):

  • MBTA is Boston's public transportation system
  • Harvard offers a discount of up to 40% on T passes (train and bus passes)

Harvard shuttles:

  • MASCO
    runs the M2 shuttle which runs between Harvard's Cambridge and Boston
    campuses with stops in between. It is free to ride with a Harvard ID
    card. icon M2 schedule.pdf
