CDTA is excited to announce the upgrade of the first BusPlus project, the Red Line, which first launched in 2011. The first phase of the update covered the BusPlus BRT stations in Schenectady from Veeder/Nott to Niskayuna, and data collection, traffic analysis, and public engagement were used to inform design changes that improved the station areas and adjacent intersections.

CDTA’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Priority Corridor Feasibility Study determined where the most benefit to passengers can be achieved via changes to the roadway design, service levels, or other transit focused improvements.

CDTA has constructed mobility hubs in the Capital Region. These are locations where different travel options can be interconnected to offer a seamless transfer from one type of transportation to another (e.g., bus to DRIVE carshare).

The Capital Region Bus Lane Feasibility Study is a joint effort between Capital Region Transportation Council and CDTA to investigate the feasibility, needed infrastructure improvements, and potential operating policies for bus lanes and other priority transit treatments within the CDTA service area.

CDTA has updated its Transit Development Plan (TDP). The TDP guides CDTA’s investment and service for the next five years based on stakeholder engagement, service evaluation, and market analysis. Click to learn more about the TDP and stay in touch with the study.
