History
The Boston and Providence Railroad (B&P) opened its West Roxbury Branch from Template:Bts to Template:Bts via West Roxbury on July 14, 1849.[1][2]Template:Rp Stations at South Street (later Roslindale), Central (Template:Bts), and Template:Bts all opened with the branch.[3] A new brick station building was constructed in 1876.[4]
A grade crossing elimination project in the late 1890s raised the tracks above grade. A rail bridge was built over Roberts Street, while South Street was cut at the tracks, with only a pedestrian underpass. The 1898-built bridge over Roberts Street was replaced with a modern bridge in June 2021.[5] The new bridge was designed to allow construction of a parallel span should a second track be later added.[6]
