Getting to and Around Connecticut

Connecticut is located at the heart of the Northeast region, halfway between New York City and Boston. And as the southernmost New England state, we are an easy drive from the larger Northeast cities.

If you travel by car or bus, highways are easy and plentiful. Trains are primarily along the shoreline, with some service between New Haven and Hartford. There are also ferries from Long Island to our ports, and Bradley International Airport in Hartford/Windsor Locks makes it easy to visit from Europe and beyond.
