New Windsor Locks Train Station Opens October 18 With Expanded Bradley Airport Bus Links
WINDSOR LOCKS — Governor Ned Lamont and Connecticut Transportation Commissioner Garrett Eucalitto announced that the newly constructed Windsor Locks Train Station will open for CT rail Hartford Line and Amtrak service starting Sunday, October 18, 2026. Officials marked the opening with a ribbon cutting at the station, located at 231 Main Street.
The new station relocates passenger rail and bus service to a central location near Main Street, close to housing, businesses, Windsor Locks Town Hall and the public library, and adds expanded bus service to Bradley International Airport with weekday and new weekend connections. It provides 160 parking spaces, electric vehicle chargers, bicycle racks and a dedicated bus area; an approximately 500-foot platform allows fully accessible level boarding, supported by a 9,500-square-foot station building. The overall $121.2 million project includes $46.1 million for station and roadway improvements and $75.1 million for track and pedestrian bridge work, funded with approximately 85% state and 15% federal funds. "We built this new station to correct the missing link in the redevelopment of downtown Windsor Locks, connecting residents to jobs and travelers to Bradley International Airport and beyond," Governor Lamont said.
