CDTA, the Capital District Transportation Authority, is a leading transit brand that offers a wide range of products and services to residents and visitors in the Capital Region of Albany, NY. With a mission to move the region forward, CDTA has recently completed the construction of a new roundabout at Crossgates Mall as part of its Purple Line Project. This project, which finished on time and on budget, includes traffic signal upgrades, repaving, and restriping, as well as beautification of the area through landscaping.

The roundabout will significantly improve the flow of buses in and around Crossgates Mall, one of CDTA's busiest bus stops. It is also a crucial component for the upcoming launch of the Purple Line in November 2023. The Purple Line, CDTA's third bus rapid transit line, will run along Washington and Western Avenues in Albany, connecting to the existing Red and Blue Lines.

This seamless integration allows passengers to enjoy fast, accessible, and affordable access to various destinations across the region. CDTA is dedicated to increasing transit access, improving services, and upgrading infrastructure, demonstrating its commitment to the community.
