220 (Quincy Center Station – Hingham Center via Fore River Bridge)

220 (Quincy Center Station – Hingham Center via Fore River Bridge)

by Miles Taylor | Jun 29, 2015 | Miles on the MBTA

Getting to Hull by bus is a bit of a complicated matter, in that you have to take two of them. The first of those is the 220, which will take you as far as Hingham. And even though the ride to Hull is much more scenic, the 220 does have a few pleasant views for...

245 (Quincy Center Station – Mattapan Station via Quincy Hospital and Pleasant Street)

by Miles Taylor | Apr 18, 2015 | Miles on the MBTA

This is a route I’ve been wanting to take for a while. It’s not quite as elusive as the 217 (though I really want to take that one, too), but it does run weekdays only and not very often at that. It serves quite a few parts of southern Milton, and a large...

Perhaps the MBTA needs to hire some new map makers, because even after riding the 201 and 202, I still can’t make heads or tails of the routes’ map. To me at least, it just looks like a mess of arrows pointing in random directions. And there are some...

215 (Quincy Center Station – Ashmont Station via West Quincy and East Milton Square)

by Miles Taylor | Feb 14, 2014 | Miles on the MBTA

“There was a massive crash on 93 – the traffic’s horrible,” said my father over the phone. “Just wanted to let you know if you end up over there.” I didn’t think I’d end up over there, as there are no buses that go on 93...
