The Green Line Extension (GLX) into Somerville and Medford is 80% done, but there’s still a ways to go.
At a Wednesday meeting, the GLX team shared updates on construction progress and confirmed some long-anticipated opening dates. The Union Square branch will open this December as part of the D line, and the five-stop Medford branch will open in May 2022 on the E line.
