Below Boston’s busy streets, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s Silver Line, Boston’s first bus rapid transit line (BRT), provides fast connections for Boston commuters. The BRT network is a seamless link between the communities of Roxbury, the South End, Chinatown, Downtown and South Boston.
STV served as the prime engineering consultant for the Silver Line’s Courthouse Station and Tunnel. The project’s scope included below-grade tunnel work due to the complex geotechnical conditions of Boston’s Waterfront. As the Silver Line’s flagship station, the Courthouse features ornate finishes and characteristic purple lighting.
