Project History Train service to Newtonville was first established in the 1840s by the Boston and Worcester Railroad. The current Newtonville Station was built in the 1960s as part of the Massachusetts Turnpike construction. 2. Existing Conditions – Proposed Site Location The current station is a single side low-level asphalt platform. The platform is located on the highway side of the tracks with a barrier wall separating the platform from the highway shoulder. The station is recessed from the adjacent road traffic and is accessible by stair access from the Walnut St. Bridge and Harvard St. Bridge. The only station structure is a partial canopy. The new station will be built on the west end of the existing station. 3. Project Purpose The purpose of this project is to build a fully accessible station that meets the operational goals of the MBTA. 4. Project Scope Work consists of the reconstruction of the Newtonville Commuter Rail Station located on the Worcester Line to meet current accessibility requirements. Specifically, the proposed project will include installation of retaining walls necessary to accommodate a new station.. Additionally, the work entails the construction of four hundred (400) foot side platforms including drilled micropile foundation, four (4) electric traction elevators tying both platforms to proposed Washington Street entrance and both vertical and horizontal adjustment to track within proposed station footprint.
