Suffolk Construction, the contractor for the South Station Air Rights Project, will continue daytime and overnight construction at South Station.
Please allow extra time (5 – 10 minutes) as you get used to new construction zones and paths of travel at the station. Trains might arrive and depart on a different track than what is typical. Be sure to check your track number before boarding.
ACTIVITY RELATING TO THE OVERBUILD STRUCTURE
The overbuild structure will support the expanded bus terminal and is currently under construction covering Tracks 1-12.
The contractor continues to place concrete on the overbuild structure and install mechanical, electrical, and plumbing services within the building.
Crews continue to work at night in the railyard to install fireproofing. This work may modify the paths of travel at the ends of the tracks during the overnight hours.

SUMMER STREET PLAZA ACTIVITY
Work in the Summer Street Plaza Area continues behind construction barriers. This area serves as the main access point for Tower Work Zone construction. A uniformed police officer is stationed in the area when the gate is in use.
ATLANTIC AVENUE WORK ZONE ACTIVITY
Foundation work continues in the Atlantic Avenue Work Zone. A crane will return to the site later this year to complete steel erection during daytime hours.
REMINDERS
Pedestrian travel routes will be maintained at all times and clearly delineated. There will be access to CharlieCard validators used for the Fairmount Line.
Commuters travelling between the South Station concourse and the South Station bus terminal are encouraged to use the Platform A walkway to bypass the expanded Atlantic Avenue construction zone.
