The longest corridor rewards a coach

At 35 to 40 miles this is a genuine intercity commute, which makes a 55-seat motorcoach the right tool: reclining seats, a restroom, and Wi-Fi turn the ride into usable time. Staff park at the Stamford Transportation Center or a Harbor Point lot and ride the New England Thruway (I-95) in.

Reliability over the miles

I-95 through Fairfield County and the Bronx is the region's least predictable stretch, so we build generous buffer and run the Hutchinson River Parkway as an alternate when the Thruway locks up. The same driver runs the route daily and learns its rhythms.
