MBTA braces for a string of August closures to finish upgrades
TL;DR Summary
August will bring a nine-day Green Line shutdown (Aug. 8–16) through downtown Boston and parts of the C and E branches, plus an 11-day suspension of half the Orange Line, as the MBTA advances track and signal upgrades; officials say the closures are a necessary, efficiency-driven move to tackle aging infrastructure and will be followed by fewer long outages as work continues.
