Select Board approves MBTA fixed bus stop on Route 714
Cohasset Select Board · Meeting of January 27, 2026
Cohasset Select Board unanimously approves MBTA bus stop on Route 714. The Board backed the Bus Stop Safety and Accessibility Project, installing one fixed stop at Nantasket Avenue and Eastman Road under a 2025-2027 regional pilot spanning Cohasset, Hingham, and Hull. Hull is funding $130,000 of construction; Cohasset has no financial obligation.
Public comment raised concerns about unintended development consequences, citing the Greenbush line precedent requiring multifamily housing, though Select Board members noted the existing route will not expand service without a lengthy collaborative process.
