Westport Station to Lose Ticket Booth Staffing

Metro-North’s New Haven Line will close the ticket booth at the Westport train station in the Saugatuck area under Gov. M. Jodi Rell’s proposed budget announced this week.

The nonpartisan Office of Fiscal Analysis said $400,000 in annual savings will be achieved by eliminating ticket windows at stations in Westport, Fairfield, Darien, and New Canaan.

Asked about the closing, a ticket booth clerk at the Westport station said today she had heard a rumor but that the clerks have not been told anything official. She noted that the ticket booth at Greens Farms was closed a couple of years ago.

Jim Cameron, head of the Connecticut Commuter Rail Council (and WestportNow columnist) said Metro-North has been closing ticket booths “left and right.”
