USE THE SENIOR SHUTTLE FOR YOUR SHOPPING NEEDS:
The Watertown Senior Shuttle travels a fixed route throughout Watertown to take seniors grocery shopping, and we continually adjust the route to accommodate new riders. The bus goes to the Stop & Shop on Watertown St. on Tuesdays, the Super Stop and Shop on Pleasant St. on Fridays. Take the bus, and leave the driving (and parking) to us!  Call the Senior Center at 617-972-6490 for more info!

TRANSPORTATION HELP FOR WATERTOWN SENIORS:

Supplemental transportation services are available to Watertown seniors thanks to a grant awarded to the Watertown COA/Senior Center by the Marshall Home Fund, a non-profit community-based charitable fund dedicated to serving Watertown’s seniors.

This program is designed to provide readily accessible transportation assistance for seniors in need of last minute or emergency transportation to locations within the community.

Transportation by cab is arranged through the Council on Aging/Senior Center by calling the office during business hours.  Call the Senior Center at 617-972-6490 for more information.
