AN ACT CONCERNING FUNDING TO INCREASE THE FREQUENCY OF THE CTTRANSIT NEW HAVEN 255 BUS.
HB 5101 appropriates additional funds to the Connecticut Department of Transportation for the 2027 fiscal year to increase the frequency of the CTTransit New Haven 255 bus route between the Naugatuck Valley and New Haven during specific times. The bill directly affects riders who rely on this bus route for daily commutes and travel between these areas. Key provisions include allocating dedicated funding to reduce wait times and improve service reliability on the existing route. This is a straightforward funding measure with no new infrastructure or policy changes beyond adjusting bus frequency. The bill focuses solely on operational adjustments to the current transit service.
