Locomotive Breath

One of the neighborhood’s, and the town’s, most significant infrastructure challenges is the lack of a parking facility for the railroad station, which leaves surrounding streets choked with parked cars — many not from Stratford — every weekday. It’s both a public-safety and quality-of-life issue that affects many OSNA members.

In response State Sen. Dan Debicella (R-21) and State Rep. John Harkins (R-120) have organized a public meeting this evening, 6:30 p.m. in the Lovell Room of the Stratford Public Library. Also attending will be a representative of the state’s Department of Transportation, which will discuss work ConnDOT is currently doing at the station.

To avoid paying to park in the surface lot at the railroad station, Metro North commuters clog surrounding streets including Linden Avenue (pictured).
