Fairbanks Street station is a light rail stop on the MBTA Green Line C branch in Brookline, Massachusetts, located in the median of Beacon Street. Fairbanks station has two side platforms serving the line's two tracks. It is not accessible, although a wheelchair lift allows accessible transfer between the two elevations of the two halves of Beacon Street at the station.
Track work in 2018–19, which included replacement of platform edges at several stops, triggered requirements for accessibility modifications at those stops. As of May 2021, the MBTA expects construction at Fairbanks Street and seven other C Branch stations to begin in 2023–24.[2]
