Description

Description

The Connecticut Department of Transportation plans to spend $402 million to rebuild and lengthen all four platforms at New Haven's Union Station and construct a grand, European-inspired atrium and canopy over them. The project includes replacing and extending platforms in phases, building a single large canopy to cover all platforms, and refreshing the tunnel between the main station and platforms. The design is inspired by Vienna's Central Station and aims to protect travelers from the elements while allowing natural light. Work is scheduled to begin in spring 2029, with federal funding covering much of the cost.
