Regional economic development officials are hoping a new bus route will connect transportation-challenged workers in Meriden and New Britain with careers in a local industrial park.
CT Transit Route 511 New Britain/ Meriden is set to launch in March, said Chris Edge, economic development director for the town of Berlin. Edge sought the new route after learning that businesses in the Spruce Brook Industrial Park on New Park Drive had everything they needed to grow, except workers.
“Instead of taking people to jobs, we want to be bringing people to careers,” Edge said.
