===Bus and rail=== The city is served by the [[Orange Line (MBTA)|Orange Line]] subway that connects it to downtown [[Boston]]. The city's subway and commuter rail stops are [[Malden Center (MBTA station)|Malden Center]] and [[Oak Grove (MBTA station)|Oak Grove]]. During the first few years of the 2000s, the MBTA updated signal systems and Orange Line service was replaced by shuttle buses at night. Since September 2007, such service interruptions have been limited to occasional weekends, while signal system repairs necessitated closing off the northern portion of the Orange Line and rerouting passengers via replacement bus service from either the Haymarket subway stop or Wellington Station. There is a sizable section of the old Boston and Maine [[Saugus Branch Railroad]] line running across the middle of Malden. This line is currently owned by the MBTA, but has been out of use since 1993 and has not seen passenger service since 1958. The Saugus Branch Railroad has now been converted into a 10-foot wide multi-use trail known as the Northern Strand Trail (aka Bike to the Sea Trail) which opened in December 2012.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Bike to the Sea, Year in Review, 2018|url=https://biketothesea.com/2019/01/26/bike-to-the-sea-2018-year-in-review/}}</ref> A trail extension to the Mystic River / Encore Casino in Everett were completed in 2023, yielding a paved trail from the Mystic River in Everett to Western Avenue in Lynn.<ref>{{cite web|title = Another Gap's Gone on the Northern Strand Trail in Everett, StreetsBlog MASS|url=https://mass.streetsblog.org/2023/07/12/another-gaps-gone-on-the-northern-strand-trail}}</ref> MassDOT plans to start construction in 2026 on a bridge to extend the trail across the Mystic River to Assembly Row and the City of Lynn and the Department of Conservation and Recreation are also building a separated bicycle lane through Lynn Common, down Market Street and the Lynnway to Lynn and Nahant Beaches.<ref>{{Cite web|title= MassDOT is Filling in Gaps in the Border to Boston Trail, Streetsblog MASS|url=https://mass.streetsblog.org/2025/04/29/massdot-is-filling-gaps-in-the-border-to-boston-trail}}</ref> The Malden section of the trail features the "ArtLine" a series of murals and sculptures created through the efforts of Malden Arts. {{usurped|1=[https://web.archive.org/web/20190727115238/http://www.maldenarts.org/canal-street-hub.html Malden ArtLine]}} Bus service to all adjacent communities is also available via the service of the [[MBTA]].
