Pros: As I said at the beginning, this bus has no unique portions. The majority of them got on at Ruggles and Dudley, and there were about 15 people that went beyond Kane Square. There were, in total, about 55 people who rode this bus. Route: 15 (Kane Square or Fields Corner Station – Ruggles Station via Uphams Corner) We looped around to the other side of Fields Corner Station, and the remaining passengers got off. There was a modern apartment building, then we turned onto the bus-only road that parallels the Red Line tracks without any stops. This was a purely residential street, and there wasn’t any retail until further down. Soon, we turned onto Geneva Ave, joining the 19. Lots of businesses lined Bowdoin Street later on, but they weren’t part of any “square.” At Saint Peters Square further down the road, there was an apartment building and a church. We turned onto Bowdoin Street at Kane Square, which had much fewer retail than I was expecting. Now we were running with the 17 down a mostly residential street with a few businesses dotted in. There were a whole bunch of businesses at the intersection with Columbia Road, which we went down for a bit before turning onto Hancock Street. After that was Uphams Corner Station, which at street level was looking pretty worse for wear. We then went by some out-of-place modern apartments and a park.
#Bus 15 to kane suare at dudley street at belden st full
After a playground, though, the retail came back in full force, lining both sides of the road.
At the intersection with Blue Hill Ave (where the 45 left us), there were a few businesses, though it went back to residences further down Dudley Street.
It got residential pretty quickly, with mostly houses and a few apartments. Leaving Ruggles with an already packed bus, we did the usual Tremont Street to Malcolm X Boulevard to Dudley run, where there was another hoard of people waiting to get on.įrom there, we headed down Dudley Street along with the 41 and 45. The 15 comes out from behind another bus at Ruggles.Īs this was a Sunday, I would be getting the full 15 experience, all the way to Fields Corner – on weekdays and part-time Saturdays, buses short-turn at Kane Square. So, to complete this recent trilogy of Key Bus Routes, here’s the 15! Evidently, though, it goes through some pretty transit-starved neighborhoods, and I think its frequent service is what gives it its high ridership. On the map, it looks like a fairly short route that has no unique portions to itself. I have to admit, before riding the 15, I couldn’t understand how it could be so busy.
