City of Waterbury The State of Connecticut has recently invested $120 million in track and signal upgrades, serving as the prerequisite for expanded rail line service and the concurrent running of trains on the Metro-North Railroad branch line from Bridgeport to Waterbury.
A new train schedule, slated to begin in June 2022, calls for more trains to run on weekdays to and from Waterbury – including new train cars and additional services.
Waterbury Train Station Improvements
Operated by Metro North, the rail passenger service features daily round trips between Waterbury and New York City – making it attractive for citizens to live in one city and work in the other.
Currently, more than 1,100 people commute from Waterbury to lower Fairfield County and Manhattan daily.
A highly-anticipated revitalization of the train station parking lot – located next to the famous clock tower building owned by the local newspaper – is complete, with parking lot, security camera and lighting improvements that make entering and exiting the station more comfortable.
