Megabus Boston Bus Stop Change - Back Bay

Megabus is moving it's operations from South Station to Back Bay Station - change is effective Wed. May 13th, 2009.

Go here on Megabus.com for more information. The map is on the bottom of that page.

Is Mega having trouble making a profit in Boston? What would spark the change in location. This can't be an ideal move to compete with Fung Wah, Lucky Star, Bolt, and Greyhound.

UPDATE: Megabus has removed the Back Bay Station advisory...but just go to any mapping program and search Back Bay Station in Boston, MA. The bus pickup/drop off is located in the "back" of the station, where the city buses go. If you're coming out of the subway at Back Bay Station, the Bus Stop will be behind you as you go up the escalators.

UPDATE 2: This is a popular landing page from Google on Hartford stop searches. Here is the map of the pickup spot in Hartford. Please note, Megabus Hartford service is stopping Sept. 14, 2009. Go to the Hartford Bus homepage for more details.

  1. The change was sparked by their desire to bring double deckers into service on the Boston line.
