Public Transportation Directions

MBTA - Green Line D (Riverside Line) and/or Bus Route #59

Train/Bus: The Route 59 Bus travels between Needham Junction and Watertown Square via Newtonville. You can transfer from the Green Line (D) at Newton Highlands to the Route 59 Bus. The bus will drop you at the corner of Chestnut and Elliot Streets. This is directly across the street from the Echo Bridge Office Park. You will walk straight along Chestnut Street through the Echo Bridge Office Park parking Lot until you reach our building. #1039 is at the end of the lot with the door facing Chestnut Street.

Train/Cab: Due to the distance from the closest T station, we have contracted with Veterans Taxicab to transport participants, staff and visitors to our building.

If you plan to use the cab service, please call The Wellness Community at (617) 332-1919 for details BEFORE
USING THE CAB THE FIRST TIME.

To use the cab service, take the D Train to either: NEWTON HIGHLANDS or WABAN.  Both of these stops have easy access to public phones and sheltered places to wait for the taxicab. If one of these cabs is not waiting they can be reached by calling VETERANS CAB at 800-442-7554.  WAIT TIME SHOULD NOT EXCEED 10 MINUTES.


PLEASE DO NOT PAY THE DRIVER. The cab driver will provide you with a VOUCHER to sign for the trip. Fare and Tip are covered by generous donations to The Wellness Community.

If you wish to take this route, take a D Train to the ELLIOT. (Rt. 9 near the corner of Woodward Street) Call us at 617-332-1919 for detailed walking directions.
