Officials tout benefits of Danbury line extension

DANBURY -- A proposal to provide passenger trains from Danbury to Massachusetts is gaining traction and experts now say the service could bring millions of dollars in economic benefits to the region.

While passenger service along the Housatonic Railroad's existing freight line -- from Danbury through to New Milford and Kent -- was proposed more than five years ago, the plans have sparked renewed interest in recent months as more officials throw their support behind it.

Gov. Dannel P. Malloy is expected this week to unveil his new transportation strategy that will call for major infrastructure improvements, and state lawmakers anxious to have expanded passenger service in the region have clamored to offer several bills that would study and move forward such propositions. The proposed legislation calls for passenger service to be expanded to New Milford or farther north to Canaan.

"It's not simply about highways and bridges," Malloy said during a recent news conference in Danbury. "It's also about increased bus service in the Danbury region, and a more modern service. It's about additional improvements to the Danbury (rail) line and an extension of the Danbury line beyond where it currently terminates."
