The MBTA is today reminding riders that Green Line E branch service will be suspended between Government Center and Heath Street on the E branch for seven consecutive days, May 30 - June 5.

The MBTA will continue the installation of critical Green Line Train Protection System (GLTPS) infrastructure on the E branch during this service change. When complete, GLTPS will combine vehicle and wayside equipment to avoid train-on-train collisions, incorporate speed enforcement, and more.
