About Somerville

Somerville, MA, located just two miles northwest of downtown Boston, has a rich and diverse history. Originally settled in the 1630s, it was officially incorporated as a town in 1842 and later became a city in 1872. Somerville played a significant role in the industrial revolution, with many factories and mills being established along the Mystic River. This led to the growth of the city's transportation infrastructure, including the construction of railroads and canals to support the movement of goods and materials.

Freight transportation has always been an important part of Somerville's economy. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the city was a major hub for the transportation of goods by rail and water. The Boston and Lowell Railroad, which ran through Somerville, connected the city to other major industrial centers in New England. The Mystic River, which flows through the city, was also a vital waterway for the transportation of goods. Today, Somerville is still a transportation hub, with several major highways and the MBTA's Orange Line running through the city, making it easily accessible for freight transportation.
