 Jamaicaway connects Riverway in the north with Arborway in the south.Designed with carriages in mind during an era when Jamaica Plain was a sparsely inhabited streetcar suburb, Jamaicaway is now a well-traveled route for motor vehicles.Adding to the volume of traffic is Jamaicaway's proximity to the Longwood Medical and Academic Area and to main roads leading to Forest Hills, West Roxbury and the densely populated suburbs of Norfolk County.
