Project Value: $81M
The Government Center Station Reconstruction Project combined improvements to the Green Line Station, Blue Line Station, and Cambridge Street/Government Center Plaza, bringing Government Center Station into compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and the Boston Center for Independent Living (BCIL) Agreement. The reconstruction of the Green and Blue Line Stations included a new head house structure as the primary entrance, raised code-compliant platforms to provide accessible boarding of the Green Line low-floor trains, new redundant elevators from the street to the Green Line level as well as from the Green Line level to the Blue Line level, new escalators, LED signage, a new and expanded fare collection area, mechanical systems, lighting, a public address system, and a new emergency exit structure on Cambridge Street. The project also included reconstruction of Cambridge Street and a portion of City Hall Plaza in the vicinity of the Station to provide accessible paths of travel to the station.
