The MBTA has been operating almost as well as it did in the old pre-pandemic days. Well, that is as long as you don't need to go to Quincy or Braintree.
Alerts: The Braintree branch of the Red Line is still shut down and replaced by shuttle buses. It's the longest shutdown yet this year and won't end until Sept. 29.

Grade: C. The rest of the subway lines are hustling right along, but no one's going to confuse armies of shuttle buses with good service any time soon.
