New Britain Busway
In 1998, the Major investment Study for the Hartford West corridor was completed. This recommended the development of a busway from Hartford to New Britian. Since that time, the Connecticut Department of Transportation has led the effort to bring this top priority project to fruition. Final Design is expected to start in 2006. The busway is expected to be operational in 2011.
Details of the project are available on the website www.ctbusway.com, which is maintained by ConnDOT.
ALSO: Information about the New Britain/Hartford Bus Rapid Transitway Station Area Planning Project for Land Use and Development can be found on the Community Development page.
ALSO: The Central Connecticut Regional Planning Agency conducted a study of opportunities to link the proposed busway with communities farther to the west. Further information on this Busway West Plan can be obtained on the CCRPA website at www.ccrpa.org/transport.htm. |
