#HARTFORD, CT – Governor Ned Lamont today released the following statement following the announcement made by Condé Nast Traveler, one of the nation’s leading travel publications, that Bradley International Airport has been named the fifth best airport in the United States in its 2019 Readers’ Choice Awards:
“Bradley International Airport is a conveniently located, accessible option for travelers throughout the New England region and its value needs to be utilized in our efforts to drive growth and serve as a magnet for economic activity. Over the last several years, many new improvements have been made at the airport to make it an even more convenient travel option, and we are determined to build on that success. That is why our CT2030 plan to transform the state’s transportation system includes the creation of a direct rail connection between Bradley and the CTrail Hartford Line. Businesses want to be located where they can move goods and services easily and we must utilize our airports as a resource to grow jobs and increase business activity in Connecticut.”

Connecticut needs to improve our transportation system. A reliable and modern transportation system is a key to a healthy economy and job growth. But we do not need tolls or tax increases to make that happen.
CT Senate Republicans presented a plan that shows another way to invest in transportation and grow jobs in a way that’s sustainable and accountable to taxpayers – all without tolls.
The Fiscal Accountability & Sustainable Transportation Reform CT (FASTR CT) Plan recognizes that trust in government is a major issue for residents. This plan would restore what has been stolen from transportation over the last decade and not take any more from taxpayers.
FASTR CT
Solves our transportation problems (funding and Special Transportation Fund solvency)
No tolls
No tax increases
Cuts back on bonding
Creates jobs
Pays off long term liabilities
Leverages federal dollars, maximizing federal low interest TIFIA loans to potentially 0.8%
Prioritizes needed projects
Creates accountability and vetting of all DOT projects
Ensures communication with New York on rail projects
Restores money that was diverted from the STF over the last decade
