Framingham/Worcester Commuter Rail All-Day Marathon Monday Pass Available
This pass is good for Marathon Monday, allowing passengers to hop off and on the parade route.
WORCESTER, MA—This year, for the first time, there's an easier and cheaper way to navigate the marathon as a spectator.
Keolis Commuter Services and the MBTA teamed up to give marathon fans a new convenient ticketing option to view the famed Marathon at multiple locations along the course. A $20 ticket will allow all-day, on and off travel along the Framingham/Worcester Line of the Commuter Rail. Spectators can watch a runner pass them in Ashland, cheer again in Wellesley and then congratulate them at the finish line in Boston all with the same commemorative ticket, said the release.
“Marathon Monday is a significant day for many of our customers and it’s important to us at Keolis that we provide transportation options that enhance the experience,” said Acting Vice President of Service Delivery Kennon Foster in a statement. “The opportunity to see the race at multiple stages with a ticket that doubles as a keepsake will do just that.”
Tickets are available for purchase now at MBTA ticket windows and will be available on-board Framingham/Worcester Line trains on the day of the marathon. These commemorative tickets will not be available at MBTA fare vending machines.
The $20 pass allows riders to travel up and down the marathon route and back home for one flat rate. It is only valid on that line on Marathon Monday.
