BROOKLINE, MA — Beacon Street crossovers may be temporarily closed and several Green Line trolley stops in Brookline will not be serviced during the MBTA track work scheduled to run through March 8.

While officials said "most vehicular traffic should not be impacted by track repairs," those looking to cross Beacon Street may have to find an alternative while work is being done on the Babcock, Cleveland Circle and Brookline Hills lines from Copley Square.

Trains will operate between Boston College and Babcock Street on the B Line. Riders should use shuttles between Babcock St and Copley.
