Dean Road station is a light rail stop on the MBTA Green Line C branch, located in the median of Beacon Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. The stop has two staggered side platforms, the platform before the grade crossing in each direction. Dean Road has no MBTA bus connections and is not accessible.
Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops.[2] Dean Road was the only non-accessible C Branch stop not included in these plans. As of November 2023[update], construction of the work at other stations is expected to take place from mid-2025 to spring 2026.[3] Designs shown in February 2024 included Dean Road and called for both platforms to be shifted to the far side of the intersection.[4] 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.[5]
