Background

edit

The Leverett Circle Connector Bridge also terminates here, and has a direct bypass in both directions connecting it directly with Storrow Drive. It provides an onramp to Interstate 93 northbound and an offramp from I-93 southbound. A direct onramp is available to Interstate 93 southbound, into the Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. Tunnel.

Massachusetts Route 3 passes from the tunnel onto Storrow Drive. Massachusetts Route 28 passes from Charles River Dam Road onto Storrow Drive.
