New Hubway Stations Planned for the South End

Boston’s bike-sharing service Hubway announced this week that more than 75 percent of its bicycle stations are open and operational.

In the South End, three stations from previous years will be back, including the Tremont Street station in front of the South End Library, one at Tremont and Berkeley Streets, and Columbus Avenue at Mass. Ave. 

Three new stations are planned for the South End, including Washington Street at Rutland Street, Boston Medical Center and Washington Street at Waltham Street. 

    “After a very snowy winter we are thrilled to announce that Hubway is open for business,” the company said in an announcement. “Our team will continue to add stations and expect to be fully deployed by mid-April.”

    The current Hubway footprint is 112 stations and 1100 bicycles with several updates to the 2012 configuration:
