Following the conversion of Chapel Street between College and York Streets to two-way traffic, the New Haven Police Department will be increasing enforcement on the corridor.

Drivers should plan accordingly, as there will be increased ticketing for vehicles parked illegally along the stretch. These measures are part of a broader commitment to ensuring our new traffic patterns remain safe and accessible for all road users.

Let’s do the math: running a school bus stop-arm is never worth the risk! Illegally passing a stopped school bus to save a few minutes will get you a $250 citation in the mail.

The good news? This math has a proven solution. Once drivers receive a citation, 94% of them never get a second one.

Save yourself the fine and start driving safer today. Learn more about New Haven's school bus safety camera program at https://saferoutesforall.org/school-bus-safety-cameras/

Get your appetite ready, New Haven! Outdoor dining is coming soon...

The City’s 2026 Outdoor Dining Program is transforming parking spots into vibrant on-street patios called parklets, helping support local businesses while creating more lively neighborhoods. To keep everyone safe, the 2026 guidelines require heavy-duty protective barriers, high-visibility reflective markers, and ADA compliance. Plus, parklets are only allowed on streets with safe speed limits of 25 MPH or less.

Stay tuned as your favorite local spots begin setting up their outdoor tables!
