Three major roads connect downtown Boston with Brookline and Newton. Route 9, is known as Huntington Avenue in Boston and Boylston Street in Brookline and Newton. It runs through the Chestnut Hill Area and the southern side of these towns.  

Beacon Street, marked with brownstone buildings and the C Green Line trolley, runs West in a straight line from Boston, through Brookline and Newton. Beacon Street is home to several major squares and villages: Coolidge Corner, Washington Square, Cleveland Circle, Newton Center and Waban. 

On the northern end, Commonwealth Avenue curves and cuts across both Boston University and Boston Collage. Also running from downtown Boston through Newton, Commonwealth Avenue marks the border between Brookline and Boston in several spots. The B Green Line trolley runs between the outbound and inbound lanes, connecting BU in Allston and BC in Brighton. 

To avoid city streets, use Storrow Drive along the Charles River, connecting to Soldiers Field Road. Otherwise, you can always make use of the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90) for quick access between Boston and Newton. Don't forget to have $1.00 handy for tolls.
