Abstract:

This project puts forth a forward looking water-based transportation plan which would serve four NPS units in and around Boston Harbor: Boston Harbor Islands National Recreation Area, Boston National Historical Park, Salem Maritime Historic Site, and Adams National Historical Park. The report examines the existing conditions at the four NPS units in terms of park facilities, visitor circulation, access and inter-modal connections, water transportation service, dock and pier facilities, and information services. Volpe identifies specific transportation needs for each NPS unit, as well as prospective transportation routes between the units and Boston Harbor. Operating cost analysis and dock-site needs assessment are accounted for. Finally, the report provides recommendations for ongoing support of alternative water transportation.
