The Ted Williams Tunnel is a major underwater highway tunnel in Boston that connects Logan Airport to downtown Boston and the Massachusetts Turnpike. Named after legendary baseball player Ted Williams, it allows vehicles to quickly travel between the airport and the city. Built largely beneath Boston Harbor, it features multiple lanes for traffic and includes safety and ventilation systems.
