MBTA Bus Routes In South Boston
The Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority operates a number of buses in South Boston, Boston, Massachusetts, all of which connect to the Red Line at Andrew, Broadway or South Station.
All of these routes terminate at City Point at East First Street and O Street. They approach it via East First and a one-way pair on P Street (south/west bound) and Farragut Road (north/east bound). All buses but the 11 turn west onto East Fourth Street (westbound) and East Broadway (eastbound), with westbound buses running north a block on L Street to rejoin eastbound buses at L Street and East Broadway.
Until Spring 1982, buses used East Fourth and P in both directions to the old North Point Carhouse at East Second Street. This was inherited from the path of the old streetcar tracks.
The waterfront area is also served by the #4 North Station - World Trade Center via Federal Courthouse & South Station, as well as the 448, 449 and 459 express buses to the Lynn area and the very-limited service early morning #171 between Dudley and Logan Airport (which may not stop in South Boston).

“If Rosa Parks had taken a poll before she sat down in that bus in Montgomery, she’d still be standing.”
—Mary Frances Berry (b. 1938)
“The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
—Terri Apter (20th century)
“The white gulls south of Victoria
catch tossed crumbs in midair.
When anyone hears the Catbird
he gets lonesome.”
—Gary Snyder (b. 1930)
“In Boston they ask, “How much does he know?” In New York, “How much is he worth?” In Philadelphia, “Who were his parents?””
