Red Line Construction Projects
Project Overview
The Red Line is CDTA's first BRT line, first launching in 2011. Since then, the Red Line has become an integral part of the Capital Region's transit network. CDTA is currently developing a slew of BRT station upgrades and roadway/intersection improvements along the Red Line set to be complete in 2022 and 2023.
CDTA is working on a related station upgrade and intersection improvement project called the Red Line Update.

Roadway and Intersection Improvements
INTERSECTIONS ALONG NY-5
CDTA is upgrading its first BusPlus project, the Red Line, which launched in 2011. The first phase covers the BusPlus stations in Schenectady from Veeder/Nott to Niskayuna, and includes data collection, traffic analysis, and public engagement to inform design changes that will improve the station areas and adjacent intersections for transit riders, pedestrians, and other travelers throughout the corridor.
