Each weekday MBTA bus route 354 makes eight trips from the Washington Mall Station on State Street, Boston to West Cummings Park and beyond. The first six Route 354 buses each day, which leave Boston between 6:35 AM and 8:35 AM, stop in Medford Square, before continuing up I-93 to Cummings Park. The remaining two buses are express runs direct to WCP leaving State Street at 10:15 AM and 11:45AM, with one stop at Montvale Avenue and I-93, serving Cummings clients at 2-14 Henshaw Street.

The six outbound morning buses through Medford Square each morning leave Medford Square for Woburn every 15-30 minutes between 6:44 AM and 8:45 AM. These, too, then travel north on I-93 to the Montvale Avenue exit, and on to West Cummings Park, Woburn Center, Cambridge Street and Burlington.

Mishawum Station (Amtrak) to West Cummings Park

Additionally, Bus Route 355 also visits West Cummings Park on its run between State Street, and Haymarket Square Boston and Woburn's Mishawum Station. This, too, is weekdays only, but its two visits northbound to Mishawum Station can be quite handy for anyone wanting to access Logan Express to the airport, or board the Amtrak "Downeaster" train to Portland, Maine.

Bus 355, as of the June 21, 2008 schedule, leaves 400 West Cummings Park at 6:40 AM and 7:30 AM, arriving Mishawum at 7:01 AM and 7:51 AM, respectively. The reverse runs from Mishawum to Boston presently leave Mishawum Station at 3:30 PM and 5:10 PM on weekdays, and stop off at 400 West Cummings Park about 10 minutes later.
