==Bus lanes== [[File:MBTA route SL2 bus at World Trade Center station, December 2019.JPG|thumb|right|World Trade Center station in the South Boston Piers Transitway|alt=A bus in an underground bus station]] Several sections of dedicated right-of-way for MBTA buses have been opened in the 21st century. Two sections of the Silver Line have off-street busways: The 2004-opened {{convert|1.2|miles|adj=on}} [[Silver Line (MBTA)#Waterfront|South Boston Piers Transitway]] tunnel in the Seaport (used by the {{MBTABus|SL1}}, {{MBTABus|SL2}}, {{MBTABus|SL3}}, and {{MBTABus|SLW}}), and a 2018-opened {{convert|1.1|miles|adj=on}} surface busway in [[Chelsea, Massachusetts|Chelsea]] used by the SL3. A direct ramp to the [[Ted Williams Tunnel]] is [[Silver Line (MBTA)#ramp|proposed for use]] by the SL1 and SL3.
