neighborhoods. Before the garage project, access via the footbridge at Washington Street was inconvenient for many of these passengers, particularly those coming from areas northwest of the station via North Street and southwest via Bridge Street. Reaching the station from these areas or an off-street lot along Bridge Street often involved crossing at an unsignalised crosswalk with poor visibility around a curve. Unofficial trails paralleling the two streets from the parking lot entrance were used by many pedestrians, but these routes were not accessible and involved trespassing on private land and/or the lightly used freight tracks. Following a 2013 city study that recommended constructing sidewalks and gated track crossings along these desire lines to enhance pedestrian access, accessible track crossings were installed on both sides on North Street to allow pedestrians to avoid the bridge. However, an official pedestrian route following the unofficial path north of the platform to the nearby Jefferson at Salem Station development was ruled out in March 2013 due to safety concerns, as it would have crossed the much busier mainline track.
938: 974: 1033:. This was the case until November 16, 1984, when a fire destroyed the wooden railroad bridge over the Danvers River between Salem and Beverly. The MBTA constructed a temporary station over the weekend in the former B&M yard at North Street; 280 parking spots were added. Shuttle buses serving Ipswich met curtailed Boston–Salem trains there; shuttle buses from Beverly (serving Rockport–Beverly shuttle trains) met trains at Thorndike Street near the bridge. On January 7, 1985, Rockport shuttle trains were discontinued and all bus/train connections were made at North Street. Passenger service to Beverly and beyond over the new bridge began on December 1, 1985. However, freight service was not resumed over the new bridge.

This was expanded into a large repair shop; the roundhouse was later rebuilt with more stalls and access from the south to serve commuter trains. A large freight yard was located south of downtown. Other minor passenger stations were located in Salem at various times: Grove Street, Carltonville, and North Street on the Essex Railroad; Castle Hill (Atlantic) at the junction of the Eastern and the Marblehead Branch; Pickman Park on the Eastern; and Loring Avenue and Forest River on the Marblehead Branch. 1101:
Environmental Impact Assessment, as the project was to be built entirely over an existing parking lot and was thus unlikely to have negative environmental effects. Besides the garage, the project included the construction of a standard 800-foot (240 m)-long high-level platform for faster and fully accessible level boarding, as well as rehabilitation of the 1900-built interlocking tower. The project was originally to cost $ 37 million, but increased to $ 44.5 million due to changes mandated by new earthquake codes, the brick facades, and a roof for the pedestrian walkway.

However, planning continued for a garage and new platform at Salem. Funding was provided by the Federal Transit Administration ($ 3.6 million), the Massachusetts Department of Capital Asset Management ($ 3 million to reserve 150 spaces for the Essex County Courthouse), the City of Salem, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and the MBTA. Planners initially considered a garage of up to 750 spaces; after various changes, the five-story garage was built with 714 spaces. 780: 1058: 990: 886: 1145:; the MBTA operates additional weekend service to Salem during October to accommodate demand. In 2020, to discourage crowding during the COVID-19 pandemic, this extra service was not run; most outbound trains did not stop at Salem for two weekends in late October. The additional service was resumed in October 2021. Service on the inner portion of the Newburyport/Rockport Line was suspended for several periods in March–September 2022 to accommodate signal work on the line. 143: 537:
October 1954 to make way for a southward expansion of the tunnel to eliminate the last two grade crossings. The extended tunnel opened in August 1958 along with a new station, which had platforms in the trench south of the tunnel and a brick station building at street level. Service on the branch lines connecting to Salem declined in the 20th century, with the final branch service to Marblehead ending in 1959. In January 1965, the 1964-formed

Bus routes that previously terminated in downtown Salem were extended to the new station that September. The old station building remains extant; its exterior was heavily modified in 2003 for use as a restaurant, and it was converted to a private school in 2006. 761:- during a European trip. The Washington Street side of the new station had two towers, resembling those of a medieval castle, flanking a granite archway which spanned three tracks. The wooden trainshed was constructed to the south, partially on piers over the South River (which was not filled until the 1880s). A massive sea wall was built to protect the station from flooding. The station opened on December 1, 1847. In 1851, 914:

The B&M decided to demolish the old station over the protests of local preservationists, who wished to see the facade reused as the entrance to an underground station or as a museum. Demolition began on October 22, 1954 and lasted for months. Service through Salem was maintained during the entire project; temporary platforms near the former station were used after demolition.

The lengthy construction, during which many business on Washington Street were difficult to reach, resulted in at least 17 of them going bankrupt; however, business increased soon after the project was completed. 877:
Passenger service on the Essex was cut back to Salem–Danvers in 1926; that service lasted until massive B&M service cuts on May 18, 1958. Marblehead service was halved to one daily round trip during the 1958 cuts, and cut entirely on June 14, 1959. For a brief period, Portsmouth trains were combined with Rockport trains at Salem.

The Salem and Lowell and the South Reading Branch shared a station at the north end of the tunnel rather than using the Eastern's station, even after the Eastern acquired the South Reading Branch in 1851. The Salem and Lowell extended north from the station to the Salem Harbor Branch, which intermittently served a coal port. 1121:
the platform, the bus loop, passenger drop-off areas, traffic lights, and bike paths - lasted into the first half of 2015. In January 2015, a "Pedal and Park" secure bike cage with racks for at least 100 bikes opened. This was the first such installation at an MBTA station without rapid transit service.

The third part of the project was a $ 6 million southward extension of the tunnel to Mill Street, for a total length of about 2,170 feet (660 m). The original tunnel was the only remaining single-track section between Boston and Newburyport; despite a push from the mayor, the B&M declined to

Railroad traffic began declining after World War I due to competition from streetcars and private automobiles. Passenger service on the South Reading Branch, largely redundant after the B&M consolidation, ended on January 2, 1926. Service on the eastern part of the Salem and Lowell ended in 1932.

In the late 1940s, the B&M and the state began a three-part project to eliminate grade crossings in the downtown area. Overpasses for Bridge Street and North Street, the former acting as an extension of the tunnel, were completed in the early 1950s. The B&M began demolition of the station in
