090926 COMTO-CSCE Joint Webinar on CTDOT Bus Shelter Enhancement Program

Please join CSCE and the Conference of Minority Transportation Officials (COMTO) CT Chapter for a joint webinar on Reimagining Connecticut’s Bus Stops: A Capital Investment for Better Transit at 12 p.m. Noon EST on Wednesday, September 9, 2026. Attendees may earn 1 NYS PDH at this event. On behalf of CSCE, this webinar is sponsored by the CT Chapter of the ASCE Transportation & Development Institute.

Connecticut has launched a first-of-its-kind effort to reimagine the everyday bus stop and transform it into a safer, more accessible, and more welcoming part of the public transportation experience. CTDOT’s Bus Stop Enhancement Program is more than a shelter installation project — it is a statewide approach to improving how riders interact with transit, how communities connect to service, and how infrastructure can support dignity, comfort, and reliability for the people who depend on it every day. This presentation will give transportation professionals a closer look at how the program is being delivered across Connecticut, from selecting locations and coordinating with towns to advancing feasibility, design, installation, and long-term maintenance. Attendees will leave with a better understanding of how thoughtful bus stop improvements can strengthen the transit network, improve the rider experience, and support more accessible and connected communities.
