There’s a new bus route starting next week that will help Hopkinton commuters. On Tuesday, May 27 the Metrowest Regional Transit Authority will begin the new 495 Connector route which will run mostly on Route 85, connecting the South Acton, Southborough, and 495 Forge Park (Franklin) MBTA Commuter Rail stations, with stops in eight communities including in Hopkinton at the Post Office on Cedar Street. This is an enhancement to the current service which runs to South Street in Hopkinton.
