The best way for any of our fans to travel to the game, especially those without specific parking arrangements, is to take public transportation, known to locals as the T.
The T makes transportation easy with ample parking at T stations convenient to major highways and popular hotels. The T recommends D Line trolley service from Riverside Station (Exit 22/Rte. 16E from Rte. 128). Guests of the Newton Holiday Inn or the Newton Marriot Hotel will find Riverside Station extraordinarily easy to use.
The T offers several Green Line stations located within short walking distances to Alumni Stadium. Use the map provided to plan your route!
