Tweed-New Haven Airport

Tweed-New Haven Regional Airport is an FAA-certified Class-1 airport providing commercial and general aviation services. It offers over 330 destinations through the American hub in Philadelphia and supports over 100 local jobs.

The City completed an assessment of nationwide air service development programs to further support Tweed’s efforts to secure new commercial air service to key markets and to develop a responsible community benefits program. Tweed is now launching a new Master Plan to identify capital improvements related to air service development, safety and coastal resiliency.

Union Station Transit-Oriented Development

The City is continuing to work with ConnDOT and New Haven Parking Authority on major plans to renovate the station including new retail space, additional parking, and improved last mile transit connectivity. As part of this process, the State committed to several parallel efforts, including enhanced bike/ped connectivity, streetscape improvements, and financial support to rehabilitate the Grand Avenue Bridge, valued at more than $10 million. A landmark study was completed on retail remerchandising and commercial re-launch of the station itself. The approximately $55 million capital investment plan would open up 30,000 s.f. for travel- and destination tenants.
