Rail — MBTA Green Line Extension Phase 2 — Mystic Valley Parkway (Route 16) Station, Paused, no date established.
A proposed additional infill light-rail station beyond the completed Green Line Extension (GLX) Phase 1 terminus at College Ave/Medford. Boston Region MPO's own records call this project "GLX Phase 2" (College Avenue to Route 16/Mystic Valley Parkway) -- not "Phase 3." The MPO voted dedicated funding for it in 2014 ($185M) plus $8.1M for design in FFY2016, but that funding was reallocated to cover Phase 1 cost overruns in 2015-2016. MassDOT/the MPO committed to continuing environmental review, and MAPC led a 2016-2017 community visioning study with MassDOT/MBTA and the cities of Medford and Somerville. As of the Boston Region MPO's current Long-Range Transportation Plan (Destination 2050, endorsed July 2023, amended Dec 2024), the project is not listed, funded, or programmed at all, and MPO reporting (2025) describes decreased member support, particularly from MAPC (formerly the project's leading champion). No funding source or construction timeline currently exists.
