Have you taken a ride on the bright red Hartford Line? The commuter rail service debuted last summer, a recent project of the Connecticut Department of Transportation.

But rail is just one mode of transportation in a state known for congestion and aging infrastructure.

This hour, we sit down with new DOT Commissioner Joseph Giulietti. Giulietti is a Connecticut native, who most recently served as President of Metro North.

We find out more about his plans to improve rail service for the thousands of residents who commute by train every week.  We also ask about tolls and find out what infrastructure projects will be a priority under the Lamont administration.
