Boston ‘T’

Boston’s subway system “The T” is the quickest way to get around the city and the Mapway app is the best guide to using it.

The Mapway app includes our curated schematic MBTA map, train times for every station and a route planner to help you get around the city. If geographic maps are more your thing, easily switch to see the network on one of these instead.

The clearest map of Boston

Inspired by the famous London Tube Map, we’ve designed a map that’s clear and easy to read. And to keep up with a subway system that’s always changing, we’ve developed technology that allows us to push the latest map to the app without the need for an update, so you can always be confident that it is up to date.  Spend less time feeling lost and more time relaxing, exploring and seeing the sights of Boston.

Train Times

No one likes getting to their stop and having to wait ages for the next subway train. Or even worse, arriving just as a train is pulling away. Each station in the Mapway app has detailed train times arranged by line and platform so that you know exactly when your train is due.

– Did You Know? –

You can travel from the airport to the T for free via a shuttle bus.

Journey Planner

Need to get to the Boston Opera House or debating the quickest route to Maverick station? With the Mapway app you can plan a route to any subway station on the map and to major points of interest. We will find the quickest and simplest routes to use.

Step-by-step Guides

For every suggested route the app also provides a step-by-step guide through the journey. Know which direction to go and which stations you need to change at. The best part is that your entire journey is shown on our brilliant, clear map with the important stations highlighted.

– Travel Tip –

If you’ve got a CharlieCard you can transfer from the T to an MBTA bus for no extra cost.

Para mi, IMPRESCINDIBLE Estuve en Madrid y ha sido la mejor app para moverme por el metro. Te localiza la parada con exactitud y te muestra los transbordos perfectamente, con las paradas y la dirección del metro que tomar. Para mi es imprescindible cuando me muevo por Madrid, app de 10.

A CharlieTicket for riding the subway can be bought from vending machines in stations and from selected retail stores in the Boston area.

The Silver Line isn’t an underground rail, it’s an express bus route. But it’s still technically part of the subway.
