|
|
Norwalk Transit District and the South Western Regional Planning Agency are participating in a study of bus service, focusing on the Coastal Link and its connecting services along the U.S. Route 1 Corridor in southwestern Connecticut. The area of the study extends from Port Chester, NY to Madison, CT, a distance of about 76 miles. The study will develop recommendations to improve and expand public bus service along Connecticut?s Coastal Corridor, which is exemplified by an array of operators, routes, service plans and governing bodies sharing a geographic corridor that continues to become increasingly unified economically. Driven by the strong success of the Coastal Link collaboration between Norwalk Transit District, Greater Bridgeport Transit and Milford Transit District that has consolidated bus service along US Route 1 between Norwalk and Milford, this study seeks to determine opportunities to create additional operating efficiencies and partnerships that will improve service to current and future bus passengers and enhance intermodal connectivity.

The recommended service plan report (108 pages) can be found here: http://www.swrpa.org/Uploads/Coastal%20Corridor%20Bus%20Study%20-%20%20Revised%20Draft%20Final%20Report%20January%202012.pdf
