The Fall River-New Bedford MBTA Commuter Rail line commenced operations on Monday morning, reinstating a direct rail connection between southeastern Massachusetts and Boston for the first time in 65 years. This long-awaited service, extending to Taunton, New Bedford, and Fall River, has been under development for decades and represents a multi-billion-dollar investment. “After years of setbacks, we confronted this challenge with determination and succeeded in delivering for the South Coast. The entire state will reap the benefits,” Governor Maura Healey remarked in a press release dated March 24.
The newly extended rail line introduces six additional stops. Beginning at Middleborough, which replaces the former Middleborough/Lakeville station, the service progresses to East Taunton before splitting into two branches: one heading to Freetown and Fall River Depot, and the other toward Church Street and New Bedford, as outlined by the MBTA. Notably, the existing Middleborough/Lakeville station has been re-designated as Lakeville station and will now exclusively accommodate the seasonal CapeFLYER service.
Trains are scheduled to operate every 70 minutes on weekdays, with a total of 32 direct trips from South Station, including 15 to Fall River and 17 to New Bedford. Weekend service will consist of 26 trips, with trains running at two-hour intervals, according to the MBTA.
For the remainder of March, weekday travel on the South Coast Rail will be complimentary for passengers starting or concluding their journey at one of the six newly added stops. Riders must inform the conductor of their origin and destination stations to qualify for the free service, as per the March 24 press release.
Following the conclusion of the free period, standard fares will apply, with a one-way ticket from South Station to any of the new stations priced at $12.25. A reduced fare of $6 will be available for seniors, individuals with disabilities, and those meeting income eligibility requirements, as specified by the MBTA.
