As part of MEVA's ongoing efforts to enhance mobility and convenience for the Merrimack Valley area residents, they are pleased to announce the opening of our new bus hub at a better, more accessible location. McGovern will serve as a central point making it easier than ever to get around.

Key Features of the New Hub:

Prime Location: Located at 211 Merrimack Street, in Lawrence, McGovern is strategically positioned to maximize accessibility and it is designed to serve a larger portion of the community efficiently.
Intermodal Station Integration: This hub will be more than just a bus station. It will integrate multiple modes of transportation, including buses, trains and bikes. This will make transferring between different forms of transit easier and faster.
Enhanced Connectivity: The new hub will enhance connections between key areas like Lawrence, Haverhill and Newburyport, making commuting smoother for work, education, leisure and other activities.

With this change comes new routes with added stops in North Andover. Visit https://mevatransit.com/all-about-our-move-to-mcgovern/ to learn more!
