Directions

The Glass Cooperative, Inc. is on the second floor of the historic Depot Building at Bedford’s Depot Park. We are adjacent to the Minuteman Bikeway.

From Route 128/95

Exit at 31B and merge onto Route 225 toward Bedford. Drive west 2.1 miles on Route 225 (becomes the Great Road) through the lights at Hartwell Avenue, Shawsheen Road, and the Great Road Shopping Center, to the fourth set of lights at Loomis Street. Turn left and drive 0.3 miles down Loomis Street to Depot Park; it's on the left just before the stop sign at South Road. There's plenty of parking between the Freight House and Depot buildings but, if not, another large lot is located just across South Road, adjacent to the big red barn housing the Bikeway Source.

Alternatives to Route 128

From Burlington or Concord, take Route 62 to downtown Bedford. In both cases, although 62 intersects the Great Road at different points, turn right; those coming from Burlington will then find themselves going west on the Great Road, while those from Concord are going east. Drive 62 a short distance to the lights at Loomis Street and turn left (Burlington people) or to the lights at South Road and turn right (Concord). In both cases Depot Park will pop up on the left in about a quarter mile.

From Lexington, take Bedford Street over 128 and follow the "From 128/95" directions.

From Westford and other points west

Drive Route 225 east through the Carlisle rotary and over the Concord River to Route 4 in Bedford. At 9:00 in the morning there may still be a delay at this intersection as Route 4 commuters from Chelmsford and Billerica, attempting to circumvent Route 3 construction, merge with those from Carlisle. Plan on five minutes extra just in case. Follow the combined Routes 4 and 225 east (staying left when Route 62 joins this highway potpourri) to the stop light at South Road in Bedford Center. Turn right and descend a slight grade about a quarter mile to Depot Park, at the bottom of the hill on the left.
