RPA and a coalition of transportation, environment, civic and business groups released a call to fast-track a new commuter rail line, beginning in New Haven, running through Hartford, CT to Springfield, MA. From RPA's Connecticut Director, David Kooris:
"This rail investment provides the single greatest opportunity in the state to create short term jobs while enabling low-carbon transportation alternatives, increasing existing home values and affordable housing opportunities in central CT, and linking Hartford and the I-91 corridor to the New York and Fairfield county economies."
