Griggs Street is a Green Line station in the northern median between the main roadway of Commonwealth Avenue and main center through-traffic roadway. The station consists of two narrow platforms with trolleys stopping just before a pedestrian crossing that leads to a crosswalk across Commonwealth Avenue to the SW corner of Commonwealth Avenue and Griggs Street, that ends at a T-intersection with Commonwealth Avenue, where traffic can turn onto the main roadway in both directions, but not onto the westbound service road. The Inbound platform has a narrow shelter with black framework and two separate sections of white domed roofs; and has a jersey barrier between it and the main roadway lanes Commonwealth Avenue. The Outbound platform has no passenger amenities or barrier to the service road.
