About Us
The Lower Mystic Link is a no-fare service open to the public.
The shuttle makes connections to the Sullivan Square Orange Line station and the Chelsea Silver Line/Commuter Rail station, serving residents in Charlestown, Everett, and Chelsea.
Identifying a need for improved transit connections in the region, the Lower Mystic Transportation Management Association (TMA) collaborated with the City of Boston, City of Everett, several major developers, and community partners to create this first iteration of the Link route. The Lower Mystic Link will be the first in a series of Link shuttles coming to the Lower Mystic region in the future.
