The station is located on a street running segment of the E branch; trains run in mixed traffic rather than a dedicated median. The station has no platforms; riders wait on the sidewalks (shared with bus stops for the route 39 and 66 buses) and cross the street to reach trains.[2] Because of this, the station is not accessible.[1]
In 2021, the MBTA indicated plans to modify the Heath Street–Brigham Circle section of the E branch with accessible platforms to replace the existing non-accessible stopping locations.[3] The new platforms are planned to be long enough to accommodate two 110-foot (34 m) Type 10 vehicles. Design work began in July 2023.[4][5] In December 2024, the MBTA indicated that platforms would be built at Riverway and Mission Park, while Fenwood Road and Back of the Hill would be closed.[6] As of December 2025[update], design work is expected to be completed in late 2026, with construction taking place in 2027–2029.[7]
