This Press Release was published by the Mayor’s Office on April 3, 2012.

Mayor Menino today kicked off the second season of the New Balance Hubway program, celebrating the full launch of Hubway’s 61 stations this week and previewing plans for the program’s expansion.  The Hubway system will offer new locations in 2012, adding new locations at the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center, the Seaport Hotel, and Cambridge Street in downtown Boston.  The program also plans to expand to neighboring communities this year.

You are cordially invited to join Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino as he officially launches the 2012 New Balance Hubway season at noon on Tuesday, April 3. The Mayor will be joined by Nicole Freedman, representatives from the Metropolitan Area Planning Council, and other Hubway dignitaries at the Boston Public Library Hubway Station to remind us that “the car is no longer king in Boston.”

New Balance Hubway is pleased to announce that our system will reopen for both annual and casual membership use on Thursday, March 15 with approximately 60% of Hubway stations live and operational.  Hubway will continue to work on installing stations through the end of the month, with full system deployment by April, 1.
