Milton is a light rail station in Milton, Massachusetts. Located in the Dorchester-Milton Lower Mills Industrial District, it serves the MBTA's Ashmont–Mattapan High-Speed Line. This station is accessible via wooden ramps on both platforms.

History

The Milton Station originally opened in 1848 as Milton Mills, a station on the Dorchester and Milton Branch Railroad, a subsidiary of the Old Colony Railroad.[2] The station was renamed Milton Lower Mills in 1871, and to the more distinguished Milton on February 2, 1885.[3]

Conversion of the section between Ashmont and Mattapan to an interurban-style trolley line by the Boston Elevated Railway began in 1926, and the segment of the Ashmont–Mattapan High Speed Line from Ashmont to Milton was opened on August 26, 1929. Milton was the terminus of the trolley line until the remaining segment to Mattapan opened on December 21, 1929.[4]

On March 18, 1968, the Neponset River flooded the line at Milton station after a {{convert|7|inch|adj=on}} rainfall. Restoration work began at 6:00 am on March 21 as the waters receded; service was resumed by 4:30 pm.[5][6]

In June 2006, Milton station was closed for 18 months while the MBTA renovated stations on the Ashmont–Mattapan High Speed Line. Trolley service was replaced by shuttle buses, and resumed in December 2007.[4][7]
