Contact CDTA

CDTA has been contacted their Northway express buses currently RUN EMPTY in the direction and times that these buses would be needed to take people GLOBAL FOUNDRIES Plant in Malta or the malls on Rte 9 & Rte 146 . All the empty buses would need to do is exit I787 to pick up passengers but for some reason no action has yet been taken.

This doesn't seem to be a Cohoes Public Works issue. Please leave this closed and work it out with CDTA.

Click fix is not limited to public works. By what authority to you close someone else on unfixed issue?

CDTA spokeswoman Margo Janack was quoted as saying "Our proposed BusPlus River Corridor line (Route 32), part of our long-term 40 miles of Bus Rapid Transit plan, would connect this area with limited stop service to a number of employment opportunities across the Capital Region," “The first step is a demonstrated, consistent need from the community to support additional choices”
So if other words you want bus service to Global Foundries or the malls on routes 9 and 146; You must email Chairman David Stackrow at davids@cdta.org and Carm Basile CEO at carmb@cdta.org and tell them you want the new bus route!

What a waste of money to operate busses empty on the return trips! All these public entities keep complaining about budget cuts and not getting salary increases blah blah blah, and yet they operate the NX empty on the return trips?

If the Capital District wants to be a "world leader in nanotechnology and chip manufacturing", then the absolute LEAST they could do is rehabilitate our decrepit infrastructure and make commuting and doing business easier! At the absolute MINIMUM, they could at least have the busses available for trips both ways!

There's no reason why the NX can't stop in Cohoes and Latham and pick up passengers and bring them northbound into Malta.

There is a severe void of functionality of the CDTA system in the outlying regions, and it is very difficult for people without cars to be able to get around the Capital District.

Since light-rail is fought every step of the way around here, bus travel is the next-best thing. Let's make it as efficient as possible for people to get where they need to go.

Why is there still no action on the proposed BusPlus River Corridor line (Route 32)?

Why is CDTA delaying on BusPlus River Corridor line (Route 32) to the Malta plant?

Will CDTA ever provide service from Troy/Watervliet to GLOBAL FOUNDRIES Plant in Malta and malls in Clifton Park?

When will they start letting these empty CDTA Northway Express buses on return trips(North AM, South PM) pick people up from the Troy/Watervliet area and drop them off at the Malta Saratoga Technology Park or the Clifton Park malls. Nothing has been done

It appears CDTA will never act on this and continue to waste taxpayer money
