President's Message

(photo_of_Edward_C_Johnson_3d)

Dear Shareholder:

Hoping to ward off the possible start of a recession, the Federal Reserve Board implemented two 0.50% interest rate reductions in January 2001. These actions boosted stocks - at least for the first month of the year - as most bellwether U.S. equity indexes posted gains. The rate cuts also reinvigorated high-yield bonds, an asset class that struggled in 2000, but which was one of the strongest performers in early 2001.

While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that can help investors plan for their future needs.

The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example, enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of return.

An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment horizon is two to four years, while a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if you need your money in one or two years.

If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving some of your bond investment into a money market fund. These funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to remember that an investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these types of funds.

Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. Of course, you should consider your financial ability to continue your purchases through periods of low price levels before undertaking such a strategy.

If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-6666, or visit our web site at www.fidelity.com. We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the information you need to make the investments that are right for you.

Fidelity Target Timeline 2001

Performance: The Bottom Line

There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at a fund's income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, six months, one year or since the fund started on February 8, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's return to the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of one year or more. You can also compare the fund to the average of the total returns of U.S. Treasury Strips maturing on 8/15/01 and 11/15/01, which reflects the performance of zero-coupon bonds with maturities similar to the fund's. These benchmarks reflect reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund



$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 on February 8, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by January 31, 2001, the value of the investment would be $13,119 - a 31.19% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would be $13,824 - a 38.24% increase. If $10,000 was put in U.S. Treasury Strips (8/15/01 and 11/15/01), it would be valued at $13,062 - a 30.62% increase.

Understanding
Performance

How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow. Bond prices, for example, generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. In turn, the share price, return and yield of a fund that invests in bonds will vary. That means if you sell your shares during a market downturn, you might lose money. But if you can ride out the market's ups and downs, you may have a gain.

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview

Market Recap

One security's misfortune is another's opportunity. So tells the tale of the six-month period that ended January 31, 2001. As most major stock indexes swooned in response to a sharp slowdown in the economy, investment-grade bonds rallied on lower interest rates and unique technical factors. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index - a proxy for taxable-bond performance - returned 8.12% during this time frame. Treasuries led the way early in the period, benefiting from equity market volatility and the U.S Treasury's decision to repurchase outstanding debt and reduce future issuance as a result of a swelling federal government surplus. The Lehman Brothers Treasury Index returned 7.50% during the period. However, that wasn't enough to top the spread sectors - namely corporate, mortgage and agency securities - which made a strong move late in the period. Corporates, which languished throughout 2000 due to deteriorating credit conditions and slumping stock prices, waged a tremendous recovery in January. A strong positive signal of support for the economy from the Federal Reserve Board, in the form of two half-point interest-rate cuts - its most aggressive action in 16 months - sparked the largest one-month tightening move for corporates in more than a decade. The Lehman Brothers Credit Bond Index closed out the six-month period up 8.14%. Agencies benefited from reduced political risk surrounding government-sponsored enterprises, while discount mortgages surged on higher-than-normal prepayment activity due to a red-hot housing market. The Lehman Brothers U.S. Agency and Mortgage-Backed Securities Indexes returned 9.05% and 8.21%, respectively.

An interview with Ford O'Neil, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Target Timeline Funds 2001 and 2003

Q. How did the funds perform, Ford?

A. They performed well. For the six months that ended January 31, 2001, Target Timeline 2001 and 2003 returned 4.33% and 7.21%, respectively. In comparison, U.S. Treasury Strips maturing at approximately the same times as the funds (August and November 2001 and 2003) averaged 3.98% and 7.13%, respectively. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, which measures the performance of the overall investment-grade bond market, had a six-month return of 8.12%. For the 12-month period that ended January 31, 2001, Target Timeline 2001 and 2003 returned 7.95% and 11.79%, respectively. The U.S. Treasury Strips had respective returns of 7.83% and 12.55% during the same 12-month period, while the Lehman Brothers index returned 13.82%. The important thing to keep in mind is that it's difficult to measure these funds on a six- or 12-month time horizon; instead, they should be measured at maturity.

Q. Why did the funds outperform their Treasury Strips benchmarks during the six-month period?

A. Declining short-term interest rates painted a positive backdrop for the funds during the past six months. Maintaining our emphasis on the spread sectors - namely, corporate and agency securities - proved wise, as each outperformed Treasuries during this time frame. However, much of this outperformance came in January in response to the Federal Reserve Board's decision to reduce the federal funds rate, not once, but twice. This action restored investor confidence and dramatically improved the tone in the credit markets, causing agency yield spreads, which already were grinding tighter relative to Treasuries during the second half of the period, to narrow even more. Corporate securities fared even better, as they had one of their largest tightening moves ever in January, rebounding from record-wide spread levels. Since the 2001 fund holds shorter-term securities, it wasn't able to take advantage of the spread tightening that occurred primarily at the intermediate and longer end of the yield curve. Instead, the fund relied mostly on the yield advantage it garnered over Treasuries during the period. Also notable at this time was a sharp decline in the fund's net assets. This proved fortuitous, despite the fact that it made running the fund a bit more problematic. As assets were falling in the fourth quarter of 2000, we were selling Treasuries and agencies, which left us more heavily exposed to corporates in January when they shined.

Semiannual Report

Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued

Q. How about the 2003 fund?

A. This fund benefited from its exposure to somewhat longer-dated corporates and agencies, which performed well. Similar to the 2001 fund, our biggest wins were with corporates, including banks and brokerage firms. These groups benefited from a more positively sloped yield curve spawned by a Fed-induced steepening in the two- to 30-year segment of the yield curve. The fund's positioning in Yankee bonds - dollar-denominated securities issued by foreign entities - also proved helpful, as did holdings in the utilities and consumer non-cyclical sectors. Agency securities rebounded nicely when it became clear that government-sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would take on more stringent regulatory oversight controls proposed by Congress, which quelled the threat of these issuers losing their long-standing lines of credit from the U.S. government. Conversely, some of the factors that restrained performance included stakes in a couple of weak financial names, as well as exposure to the automotive sector. Security selection in Treasuries hurt, as we were slightly shorter in duration in the Treasury sector - a measure of overall interest-rate sensitivity - than the zero-coupon bonds in the index.

Q. How important was diversification during the period?

A. It was invaluable. Credit analysis is critical to security selection, and we feel we're one of the best at it. Despite having superior insight, there were external factors at work in the marketplace that were impossible to model, analyze or predict. What this argued for was a highly diverse portfolio, so that if a security encountered credit difficulties, it wouldn't overwhelm the strong performance achieved through security selection in the rest of the portfolio.

Q. What's your outlook?

A. Despite the rebound we've had in yield spreads of late, corporate bonds are still quite cheap and, as long as we don't plunge into a deep recession, I believe they'll continue to outperform Treasuries going forward. Agencies are still attractive, but less so than they were at the beginning of the period. Given the potential for further political noise within the sector, I may look to scale back on agencies and add more corporates in the coming months.

Ford O'Neil reiterates the funds' investment objectives and how they are achieved:

"Our goal is to generate a predictable return, slightly greater than the index net of fees, for buy-and-hold investors over each fund's lifetime. I attempt to deliver a slight yield advantage over U.S. Treasury Strips, or zero-coupon bonds, for the life of the fund, assuming that they are held to maturity. I manage the funds according to a technique known as horizon immunization, which requires that the duration of the funds be maintained at a level consistent with the remaining investment time horizon. This is achieved by investing in securities within a very tight duration range that, in aggregate, equals the duration of the Treasury Strips benchmark. In order to maximize expected returns within the constraints imposed, I tend to emphasize corporate bonds because of their typically higher yields than Treasuries. As the time to maturity shortens, the funds' stake in corporates generally increases; shorter duration corporate bonds generally exhibit less volatility than longer duration securities, and their higher yields make them an attractive investment alternative to similar duration Treasury and agency securities. Furthermore, if we can find corporates with the potential for spread tightening, we could generate capital gains from them, thereby delivering additional value to the funds."

Duration shows how much a bond fund's price fluctuates with changes in comparable interest rates. If rates rise 1%, for example, a fund with a five-year duration is likely to lose about 5% of its value. Other factors also can influence a bond fund's performance and share price. Accordingly, a bond fund's actual performance may differ from this example.

Years

3.7

Average years to maturity is based on the average time remaining until principal payments are expected from each of the fund's bonds, weighted by dollar amount.

Duration as of January 31, 2001

6 months ago

Years

2.5

3.0

Duration shows how much a bond fund's price fluctuates with changes in comparable interest rates. If rates rise 1%, for example, a fund with a five-year duration is likely to lose about 5% of its value. Other factors also can influence a bond fund's performance and share price. Accordingly, a bond fund's actual performance may differ from this example.

1. Significant Accounting Policies.

Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 (the funds) are funds of Fidelity Boston Street Trust (the trust). The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The target dates for Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 are September 30, 2001 and 2003, respectively. On those dates, the respective funds will mature. Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 was closed to new accounts as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on September 25, 2000. Current shareholders of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 are able to continue to purchase shares in accounts existing after that date. Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 will be liquidated shortly after its targeted maturity date of September 30, 2001. Fidelity Target Timeline 2003's Board of Trustees anticipates closing the fund to new accounts approximately one year prior to its target date and expects to liquidate the fund within one month of the fund's target date. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:

Security Valuation. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Securities (including restricted securities) for which quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at their net asset value each business day.

Income Taxes. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent that it distributes all of its taxable income for the fiscal year. The schedules of investments include information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."

Investment Income. Interest income, which includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.

Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.

Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from

generally accepted accounting principles. These differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.

Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Distributions in excess of net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.

Short-Term Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held in the funds less than 90 days are subject to a short-term trading fee equal to .50% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.

Security Transactions. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.

Change in Accounting Principle. Effective August 1, 2001, the funds will adopt the provisions of the AICPA Audit and Accounting Guide for Investment Companies and will begin amortizing premium and discount on all debt securities, as required. This accounting principle change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to cost of securities held and a corresponding change to net investment income.

The cumulative effect of this accounting change will not have an impact on total net assets but will result in an increase or decrease to cost of securities held and a corresponding change to accumulated net undistributed realized gain (loss).

2. Operating Policies.

Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the funds, along with other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.

Repurchase Agreements. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency, or other obligations found to be satisfactory by FMR are transferred to an account of the funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the funds' investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.

Restricted Securities. The funds are permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the end of the period, no funds had investments in restricted securities(excluding 144A issues).

3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.

Information regarding purchases and sales of securities (other than short-term securities), is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's schedule of investments.

4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.

Management Fee. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of each fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .0920% to .3700% for the period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that these rates

were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management fees were equivalent to annualized rates of .43% of average net assets for each fund.

Sub-Adviser Fee. As each fund's investment sub-adviser, Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc., an affiliate of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fees are paid prior to any voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.

Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annualized rate of .11% and .13% of the average net assets of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003, respectively.

Accounting and Security Lending Fees FSC maintains each fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.

5. Security Lending.

Certain funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Each applicable fund receives collateral (in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. At period end, for Fidelity Target Timeline 2003, the value of the securities loaned amounted to $5,250,000. The fund received cash collateral of $5,355,000 which was invested in U.S. Treasury obligations valued at $5,198,450.

6. Expense Reductions.

FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse the funds' operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, certain securities lending fees, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses, if any) above an annual rate of .35% of each fund's average net assets. For the period, the reimbursement reduced expenses by $299,964 and $133,501 for Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003, respectively.

In addition, through an arrangement with the funds' custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of each fund's expenses. During the period, Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003's custodian fees were reduced by $32 and $12, respectively, under this arrangement.

7. Beneficial Interest.

At the end of the period, FMR U.K., an affiliate of FMR was record owner of approximately 6% of the total outstanding shares of Fidelity Target Timeline 2003.
