Project Overview

CDTA is excited to announce the upgrade of the first BusPlus project, the Red Line, which first launched in 2011. The Red Line has the highest ridership and service frequency in the CDTA system; this demand warrants a thorough review of the infrastructure to ensure ongoing growth and improved service. 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 for transit riders, pedestrians, and other travelers throughout the corridor.

CDTA has also completed a related construction project called Red Line Refresh. Learn more about the BusPlus Red Line, including the ongoing construction projects, by visiting the Red Line Construction Projects Page.
