-Couldnt find a dedicated thread for this, but construction is starting soon.
“Hello,
We are excited to announce the start of the Back Bay Station Concourse Renovation Project! Beginning this summer, Back Bay Station will undergo a major revitalization, with significant improvements to the concourse level. Benefits to Back Bay Station users include:
- Increased pedestrian flow though the concourse level
- Better accommodation for passengers waiting for trains on the concourse level
- New lighting and audio equipment to improve and modernize the station’s interior
- Improvements to signage and wayfinding
- New retail opportunities for MBTA riders and the community”
• The Enabling Phase, which begins this month, will involve establishing work zones, building electrical infrastructure, and delivering steel. Crews will also be constructing a new bike cage outside at the Clarendon Street entrance of the station.
• Phase 1 is scheduled to begin in November 2025, and will focus on the center and east side of the station concourse, along with the exterior structure adjacent to Clarendon Street.
• Phase 2, which is scheduled to begin in July 2026, will focus on the west side of the station and the exterior structure adjacent to Dartmouth Street.”
