This is the sign to look for at Alewife Station - Shuttle Stop #1
This is the bus to look for - a green bus that says “The Grid”
**Pick up/drop off at Waltham Center is on Elm Street near City Hall.
*Pick up/drop off at Alewife Station is in the "Passenger Pick Up/Drop Off" area in the rear of the station. Look for the "Shuttle Stop #1" sign and a green bus that says “The Grid”.
The trains pull into the station on the bottom level. Exit the train. Regardless of which side of the station the train is on, continue walking along the platform in the direction the train was traveling (do not go towards Russell Field). Go up the stairs/escalator. Pass through the exit gates on that level. Bear right, pass through the doors, and head up one more level to the "Passenger Pick Up/Drop Off" area, following the station's signs. This will be between the lanes where the buses pick up and the access road, under the "Drop Off/Pick Up" overhead sign. Look for the yellow signs pointing you to the current location of Shuttle Stop #1, near the bike cage.
