Dear friends, Xiaoju, I'm here again~ Previous article Xiaoju gave a detailed explanation of the Boston subway. In this article, Xiaoju will talk to you about the common FAQs of Boston subway. If you don't have much to say, let's just go straight~
Part 2 About Boston subway Q A
Q1: How to distinguish the direction of Inbound and Outbound?
When Xiaoju first came, even though he knew which stop he was going to, he used Inbound and Outbound trains in the subway To distinguish directions, I often don’t know which train to choose. To put it simply, the outer circumference is in the direction of the Inbound towards the center of Boston, and the Outbound from the center to the outer circumference is in the direction of the Outbound. For details, see the following figure
. The area composed of four stations: Park St., Downtown Crossing, State St., and Government Center station is the city center area. Walking around the city center area is called Outbound.
Q2: If you sit in the wrong direction, or transfer in the station, what pit should you pay attention to?
If you sit in the wrong direction, red line, orange line, blue line, and silver line, you can transfer directly to the station. However, only the few people east of Arlington Station in the Green Line can transfer for free at the underground station, while the others are on the ground. After getting off the bus, you need to buy a ticket to change. Similarly, you also need to sit at Arlington Station for free transfers between different branches of the Green Line.
Q3: How much does the subway ticket cost? How to buy it more save?
After several price increases, the subway ticket price is 2.75 USD . But with the Charlie Card, it only costs $2.25. Unlimited transfers within stations between different lines. Charlie’s Card is a dedicated subway card, and is available at the service desks within the subway, such as Donwntown, Backbay and other subway stations, and also available at large supermarkets such as Star Market.
In addition, monthly tickets are $75, weekly tickets are $19, and daily tickets are $12. If a friend expects to have to take the subway at a high frequency on a certain day or in the short term, then these are undoubtedly very cost-effective choices. In fact, for all time lag parties, the most cost-effective way is to buy subway student tickets at their own school. It only costs $30 per month. You must go to your own school to buy in advance before school starts!
Q4: The running time of the main lines?
The following are the working day running time of the routes that time lag parties studying abroad in Boston. If you need to check the running time of the weekend and the running time of the lines not listed, please refer to MBTA Official website: http://www.mbta.com/schedules_and_maps/subway/
