If you're looking to get to Logan, Massport suggests having an extra two hours to get to the airport or taking public transportation.
MBTA CEO Phil Eng says the routes have been expanded to accommodate new riders.
“The entire blue line will be free in both directions. You wont need a Charliecard or Charlie ticket, it's completely open” said Eng.
Travelers can use the Silver Line or Blue Line for airport access along with the Commuter Rail, Hingham Hull Ferry and the Logan Water Taxi.
Massport is encouraging drivers and riders to download their app and access the Mass 511 website, which have information on real time delays and travel times depending on your routes.
