SD 770 Massachusetts Senate · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act to create no cost parking at MBTA commuter rail stations

This bill requires all MBTA commuter rail station parking lots and garages to offer free parking for commuters for up to 24 hours per day. Vehicles parked beyond 24 hours would incur a $20 daily charge. Stations that also provide rapid transit service (like subway connections) are exempt from this requirement. The policy directly affects commuters who park at MBTA commuter rail stations, ensuring short-term parking is free while implementing fees for extended stays.
