August 22, 2025, Traffic Advisory

Boston's parking restrictions and street closures will be implemented for various upcoming events, including college move-ins and concerts at Fenway Park. The goal of these measures is to alleviate congestion caused by the influx of students returning to college. The Open Newbury Street series will run every Sunday from July 13 to September 21, 2025, transforming Newbury Street into a pedestrian-only zone, with several adjacent streets remaining open. Concerts featuring the Jonas Brothers, Chris Brown, and The Who will take place from August 23 to August 26, 2025, leading to additional parking restrictions in the Fenway area. Residents are encouraged to use alternative transportation methods, such as walking, biking, or public transit, to navigate the city efficiently during these events.

The MBTA recommends purchasing round-trip tickets for a quicker return. For more information on parking restrictions and event details, residents can visit the Boston transportation website. This proactive approach aims to ensure public safety and a smoother experience for all attendees.
