The Seaport traffic in anything but innovative. The combination of buses and potential water shuttles could offer a long-awaited reprieve.

A BBJ article notes the MCCA “received a boost over the summer when two Fallon Co. buildings — 100 Northern Ave., the new home of law firm Goodwin, and One Marina Park Drive — signed on to the service. Vertex’s (Nasdaq: VRTX) arrival adds not just hundreds more commuters, but another route: Shuttles now service riders at South Station, bringing them to and from Vertex’s 50 Northern Ave. headquarters, in addition to North Station…In the coming weeks, the agency will begin studying the potential for a water ferry service from Lovejoy Wharf, located near North Station, to the Seaport waterfront.
