History

Until around 2004, the station was listed as Winchester Street to avoid confusion with Summit Avenue stop on the B branch. [2] The B branch stop was closed as part of a pilot program in April 2004 (after which the C branch stop became Summit Avenue) and permanently closed the following March. [3] [4] [5]

Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops. [6] Design work for Summit Avenue and seven other C Branch stations was 15% complete by December 2022. [7] In May 2024, the Federal Transit Administration awarded the MBTA $67 million to construct accessible platforms at 14 B and C branch stops including Summit Avenue. [8] The MBTA awarded a $41.9 million design-build contract in April 2025. [9] Designs shown in February 2026 called for the platforms to be shifted westward, with access from both Marion Street and Summit Avenue. As of February 2026, construction is expected to take place from spring 2026 to fall 2026. [10]
