Dean Road Station
Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops. Dean Road was the only non-accessible C Branch stop not included in these plans. Designs shown in February 2024 included Dean Road and called for both platforms to be shifted to the far side of the intersection. In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded the MBTA $67 million to construct accessible platforms at 14 B and C branch stops including Dean Road. As of June 2024, construction is expected to be complete in fall 2026.
