Airports in Massachusetts range in size from small, rural airports serving private planes, with no public transportation on the ground, to Logan International Airport in Boston. The Massachusetts Port Authority runs Logan, Hanscom Field in Bedford and Worcester Regional Airport in Worcester.
Travelers can get to and from Logan by road or by water. Buses, vans, limousine and taxi services drive passengers to and from the airport, or you can drive yourself. Public transportation options include subway and bus service from other sections of the city to the airport. A water shuttle and water taxis offer service to the Logan dock from downtown Boston, Quincy and Hull. At Logan, a shuttle service runs between terminals, parking areas and the dock.
The Ted Williams Tunnel, which runs from South Boston to Logan International Airport in East Boston, dips 90 feet below the surface of Boston Harbor, according to the Massachusetts Department of Transportation. The tunnel is part of a 3.5-mile extension of the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) to Logan. It's 1.6 miles long. The underwater section is three-quarters of a mile.
