Boston Transit (Maybe) and Ferries
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, which serves Boston, Brookline, Cambridge, Charlestown, Medford, and Somerville, is still requiring masks on “T” trains, commuter rail, trolley systems, buses, ferries, and stations and stops, according to tweets from MBTA on Monday and Tuesday.
However, a few hours after the latest tweet, CBS Boston reported that an unnamed transportation source said masks will no longer be required on MBTA buses and trains. For now, the fate of Boston’s transit mask requirement seems unclear.
The Massachusetts Steamship Authority, which runs ferries from Cape Cod to the islands of Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket, will still require masks, according to a tweet from the ferry service provider.
