Happy 10th Birthday to @CTfastrak! Since opening on March 28, 2015, the 9.4-mile bus rapid transit line has provided 26 million rides, connecting Hartford and New Britain, CT with fast, reliable transit. Recognized as the #1 BRT system in the US by @ITDP_HQ, CTfastrak has driven $295 million in private development, bringing new housing, shopping and dining options to communities along the line. FTA supported the transformative BRT system with a $454.6 million capital grant, helping expand transit access and economic growth in the region. bit.ly/3DMaDDH
