Getting around in Hamden, CT

The public transportation service is provided by Connecticut Transit New Haven, the main bus routes in town being Dixwell Avenue (D) and the Whitney Avenue (J) routes. There are also secondary routes that serve the city, which are the M and O bus routes, or otherwise said, State Street and Winchester Avenue.

Perhaps the best way to get around in Hamden is by car, also the opinion of numerous previous visitors, due to the fact that the bus routes can get quite confusing, especially for first-time visitors. If your transportation choice, while staying in Hamden, will be the car, this might come in handy: the Wilbur Cross Parkway runs through the city center of Hamden, serving as a connection to Hartford, in the north, and to the New York Metropolitan Area, in the south. Hamden is connected to I-91, via Route 40, Dixwell Avenue being the main route from Hamden's city center to New Haven.

The traffic in Hamden, during the day, is not as heavy as in other cities, but it can get very stressful, sometimes, especially during rush hour, so it might be best to avoid getting behind the wheel during mornings and evenings.
