A Primer on the Proposed New Britain Busway Project

We talked to Ryan Lynch, senior planner with the TriState Transportation Campaign, about the proposed New Britain Busway project.

It would be a roughly 10 mile route that runs between New Britain and Hartford, carry about 16,000 riders a day, reduce traffic on and around  I-84, and connect with local “feeder routes.”   But the effort has been facing opposition in some camps.
