The MBTA has announced service changes for Thanksgiving that will be in effect from Wednesday through Friday. Here’s what you need to know about getting around Boston and beyond.
MBTA service changes on Wednesday, Nov. 27
On Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving, subways, buses, the commuter rail, and The RIDE will operate as usual, running regular weekday service.
Ferry routes will also run on regular weekday schedule, except for the Hingham Hull line, which has cancelled its 6:40 p.m. and 7:40 p.m. ferries from Hingham to Boston (Rowes Wharf) and replaced them with two earlier ferries, which will leave at 1:15 p.m. and 3:15 p.m. from Hingham and arrive in Boston at 1:55 and 3:55 p.m., respectively. Likewise, the 7:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. ferries from Boston to Hingham have been cancelled and replaced with ferries departing at 12:30 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. from Boston to Hingham, and arriving at 1:05 p.m. and 3:05 p.m., respectively.
