That isn't the shuttle route!
So, while the MBTA truck is certainly parked in a no parking zone, the real issue here is that there is no shuttle bus route that goes down School street. Both the Orange to Oak Grove and the Green to Union bustitution routes run Congress St to Court St to Cambridge St.
