From Red Line MBTA (Wikipedia). The Red Line is a rapid transit line operated by the MBTA running roughly north-south through Boston into neighboring communities. From the northwest, the line begins in Cambridge at Alewife Station, near the intersection of Alewife Brook Parkway and Route 2. The line passes through downtown Boston, with transfers to the Green Line at Park Street Station, the Silver Line at South Station, and the Orange Line at Downtown Crossing. South of downtown, the line splits at JFK/UMass, where one branch provides service to Braintree and the other to Ashmont. A connection to the Ashmont-Mattapan High Speed Line extends the reach of the Ashmont branch to Mattapan station. Regular fare is $1.70 when using a CharlieCard or $2.00 when using cash or a Charlie Ticket, regardless of point of boarding or departure. Exit fares on the Braintree extension were discontinued in 2007. Approximate travel times to or from Park Street station (excluding headways) are as follows: northbound to Harvard station, 11 minutes; Alewife station, 20 minutes; southbound to JFK/UMass, 8 minutes; Ashmont station, 17 minutes; Braintree station, 28 minutes.
