Introducing one road to a more
vibrant central Connecticut.
Introducing CTfastrak.
Connecticut's first Bus Rapid
Transit (BRT) system providing
state-of-the-art transit service
that takes advantage of a
bus-only, traffic-free roadway.
Opening in early 2015, this
valuable infrastructure will do
so much more than reduce
congestion along I-84.
Serving as an economic
engine for central Connecticut,
CTfastrak will bring a
projected 16,000 riders to their
destinations daily, providing
communities and businesses
with thousands of new
economic opportunities.
One road. Many
destinations.
Between New Britain,
Newington, West Hartford
and Hartford, passengers will
have quicker, easier access
to employment, shopping,
cultural, educational and
healthcare destinations,
including:
• Central Connecticut State
University
• UConn Health Center
• Westfarms Mall
• St. Francis and Hartford
Hospitals
• Buckland Hills area
• Bushnell Park
• XL Center
• Aetna, Travelers and many
downtown offices
Taking just 20 minutes to travel
between Hartford and New
Britain, and with buses that
arrive every three to seven
minutes during peak periods,
riders can avoid rush hour
altogether. Express buses will
access the bus-only, traffic-
free roadway from Bristol,
Waterbury, Cheshire and
Southington, extending the
reach of this efficient transit
system.
