Where to Park
You can leave your car in the driveway and walk, ride your bike, or take a local bus to your CTfastrak station, or you could get dropped off at the convenient "kiss-and-ride" area. All parking (available on a first-come-first served basis) at CTfastrak stations is free of charge.
Free parking is available in the Szczesny Municipal Parking Garage located at 35 Bank Street, which is adjacent to the Downtown New Britain Station. Just show your valid CTtransit or CTfastrak ticket or pass to the garage attendant when you leave the Szczesny Garage.
The tables below list available parking at CTfastrak stations or Park & Ride lots.
Important Note: CTfastrak parking is not available at UConn Health, Westfarms Mall, Manchester Community College, Stop & Shop or other private properties.
