More Parking At Braintree Station, Less At Quincy Adams

BRAINTREE, MA — Large-scale renovation projects planned for the Braintree and Quincy Adams MBTA stations will impact the number of parking spaces at each garage.

Starting Dec. 12, construction at Quincy Adams closes 300 of the 2,500 available parking spaces. Those spaces will remain closed for the next 20 months. The construction includes concrete and parking deck repairs, new drainage systems, new signage to help with pedestrian traffic and more.

Additional parking will open in Quincy and around the nearby Braintree Station, according to a press release on Braintree's official town website.

Most of the new spaces being made available are near Braintree Station, a short two and a half-mile drive from the Quincy station. In total, 313 spaces will open at two Braintree lots listed below:

• 108 spaces - These spaces are on Ivory Street, across from the station at the former town landfill.
• 205 spaces - These spaces are at a warehouse next door owned by F.X. Messina Co.

At Quincy Adams, 25 new spaces will open inside the garage and another 25 outside.
