Hartford East Bus Rapid Transit Feasibility Study. Hartford, East Hartford, Manchester, Vernon. In March 2001, the Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) adopted its Long Range Transportation Plan which proposes that the Hartford East Corridor be improved using Bus Rapid Transit. Two phases have been proposed. The Near-Term Alternative consists of the construction of transit stations along I-84 and I-384 that would employ the existing HOV lanes. Bus service changes would consist of operating existing local and express routes via HOV lanes and stations, and providing local bus connections to HOV stations. The Long-Term Alternative combines elements of the HOV and initial Rail Corridor alternatives in order to provide the most attractive service benefits of those alternatives.
