Open House | Lynnway Multimodal Corridor Project
May 7 @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm EDT
From the MBTA: The MBTA, City of Lynn, and the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) are working to make the Lynnway safer, more accessible, and more connected.
We invite you to attend one of our events this spring to learn about the Lynnway draft concept design and provide your feedback. You will learn about how the project will make the road safer, improve transit service, modernize traffic signals, and better serve the corridor’s future development. We will also share details about street trees and how we’re coordinating with other projects.
All four open houses will have the exact same information – please choose the one that is most convenient for you. Can’t make it in person? You can join the virtual public meeting or provide feedback online (coming soon).

About the Project
The Lynnway is a major roadway, part of Route 1A, and is owned and operated by DCR. The project area extends north from the General Edwards Bridge at the Revere city line to just north of Market Street and serves as a significant north-south connection to and within the city. For decades, the Lynnway’s design has prioritized the movement of motor vehicles, resulting in a difficult and intimidating area for pedestrians, cyclists, and bus riders to navigate, and serving as a barrier to the waterfront.
The Lynnway Multimodal Corridor Project will include safety and reliability improvements for all modes of transportation – from those who drive, walk, and bike to those who take public transportation. As part of this project, there will also be improved access both across and along the Lynnway, making it safer for people to access places like the new Harbor Park.
The Lynnway Multimodal Corridor Project builds upon several plans from the MBTA, City of Lynn, and Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). Safe, multimodal transportation improvements to the Lynnway are essential to supporting the City’s vision for the area to transform it as a gateway to the Lynn community.
