Inquiry
Our project is located 1250ft from a commuter ferry terminal operated by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA). During the project\'s regular weekday operating hours, ferry boats arrive and depart 18 times daily, carrying commuters between our Hingham site and Rowe\'s Wharf in downtown Boston. The terminal at Rowe\'s Wharf is within 1/2 mile of three MBTA subway stations where commuters may board three different subway lines or a number of commuter rail lines.\n\nWe believe the commuter ferry may be considered an acceptable form of alternative transportation for achieving this credit\'s intent of reducing the pollution and land development impacts of automobile use.
