Public Transportation

From Boston
Board the Red Line in direction "Alewife" and proceed to Harvard Square. At Harvard Square, go to the lower bus departure level and board the #71 bus (marked "Watertown"), which departs every 5-10 minutes. After 7 min along Mount Auburn Street, two stops after "Star Market", ask the driver to let you get off at "Tufts", where you cross the street and continue walking in the same direction to the next traffic light, the corner of Mount Auburn and Arlington Streets. Turn left, walk past a small cemetery, then a parking lot, and finally across an old railroad bridge to arrive at BBRI, a yellow and gray modern building on your left (less than 1/4 mile from the bus stop). Just after crossing the bridge, turn left into the driveway alongside the building to reach BBRI’s main entrance, which faces the parking lot in the rear.

From Logan Airport

Take the Silver Line Bus to South Station where you disembark and descend to the lower level to take an Inbound (Alewife Red Line) train to Harvard Square as described above.
