Itβs too easy to complain about places (especially when youβre from there) but Connecticutβs public transit doesnβt get enough love. Just had a breeze of a journey home via the Hartford Line and CTtransit β easy connections & some of the friendliest transit staff ever. Thanks team!

"The awesomeness of the Columbia Road redesign has exceeded my highest expectations β so much new dedicated space for people walking, biking, and catching the bus. Huge improvement for the neighborhood."
