We are adding New Haven Line service this weekend as CTDOT continue their work restoring I-95 after Thursday’s tanker fire in Norwalk.

Some existing trains will have more cars and we’ve added two westbound AM trips and two eastbound PM trips. Plan your trip on TrainTime app.

Earlier today, I declared a state of emergency in response to the damage that was caused to I-95 in Norwalk. This declaration will help expedite some of the resources needed for us to respond to this situation.

I will continue to provide more updates as they become available.

This closure continues to impact those traveling throughout Fairfield County, including many Stamford Public Schools employees.
