Dean Road station

Dean Road station is a light rail stop on the Green Line C branch of the MBTA subway system, located in the median of Beacon Street in Brookline, Massachusetts. The station has two staggered side platforms, serving the C branch's two tracks; the inbound platform is to the west of the intersection, and the outbound platform to the east. Dean Road is not accessible; a reconstruction for accessibility is planned in 2026.

Reconstruction

Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops. Dean Road was the only non-accessible C Branch stop not included in these plans. Designs shown in February 2024 included Dean Road and called for both platforms to be shifted to the far side of the intersection. 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.

The MBTA awarded a $41.9 million design-build contract in April 2025. Designs shown in February 2026 called for only the outbound platform to be moved to the far side; the inbound platform would be rebuilt at its existing location. As of March 2026, preliminary construction work is expected to take place in April and May 2026, followed by main construction from July to September 2026.
