The MBTA is running a reduced schedule on Monday due to the snowy weather. Because Gov. Charlie Baker is urging people to work from home if possible and stay off the roads so that crews can attempt to keep them clear, the MBTA will operate to transport those people who must use transit service.

All subway lines are experiencing weather-related delays and passengers are encouraged to check the MBTA alerts system for updates.

Commuter Rail service will run on its usual weekday schedule but weather-related delays are also expected.

According to the MBTA, subway trains will be running at mid-day frequencies, even during the morning and afternoon rush hours. That mens that the time between train arrivals will be increased by about four or five minutes,

The Red Line, which typically runs every 9 minutes, will run every 14 minutes.

The Orange Line, which typically runs every 6 minutes, will run every 10 minutes.

The Blue Line, which typically runs every 5 minutes, will run every 9 minutes.

The Green Line’s B, C, D and E lines, which typically run every 7, 6, 7 and 6 minutes respectively, will run every 9, 10, 11 and 8 minutes.

Further, between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. the MBTA will suspend Red Line service between Braintree and JFK/UMass Stations and Orange Line service between Oak Grove and Sullivan Stations to allow for jet engine powered snow blowers, known colloquially by the MBTA as “Snowzillas” to clear the tracks.

Those to stretches of track were closed during the weekend to allow for much needed maintenance and repairs as they have been the most effected due to the mountains of snow and frigid temperatures.

To get an idea for how much snow the MBTA, and the Greater Boston Area at large, has been dealing with, consider Gov. Baker’s quote. MassDOT crews have moved enough snow “to fill Gillette Stadium 90 times.”

Happy traveling, Boston.
