Commuter Rail is a shuttle bus this weekend (and related Parking Restriction @ 1314 Washington Street 7/26-7/27)

[Julia Anne Malakie]

I think they buried the lead! See the attached parking restrictions for the metered street parking and loading zone by 1314 Washington St (former Santander building) in WN Square this Sat/Sun 7/26-27. That'll probably be posted. 

Of more impact may be the reason -- no Commuter Rail train service Saturday and Sunday, in case anyone was planning on using it. Here's the MBTA's shutle bus schedule for those days:

I guess this means you'd catch the inbound shuttle bus in front of 1314 Washington, but you'd never know that from this shuttle schedule. Let's hope they put notices at the top of the stairs and down on the platform and on their scrolling message board.

Subject: Parking Restriction 1314 Washington Street June 26-June 27

 

Mayor Fuller, 

Please see the attached parking restrictions for 1314 Washington Street this weekend July 26-July 27. During this timeframe the MBTA commuter rail will be out of service due to a reconstruction project in their Natick Center Station. During the outage the MBTA will be utilizing a bus service similar to what was done during the I-90 bridge replacement in May and June. 

Thank you,

Sgt. Jason Schlegel
