Lynn has a stop on the Newburyport/Rockport Line of the MBTA commuter rail, and several bus routes that connect it with Boston and nearby communities like Revere. There are ongoing studies on the feasibility of extending the Blue Line subway to the city.
A main commercial thoroughfare through southern Lynn is "The Lynnway", which carries Route 1A. Minor state routes include Route 129 (mostly Lynnfield St., Boston St., Washington St., Broad St., and Lewis St. ) and Route 107 (Western Ave.).
