Additional Information:The Connecticut Department of
Transportation constructed the Branford, Guilford and Clinton train
stations to replace the older existing lower platform decks. The new
stations increase access and service, with improved functions such as
handicapped accessibility, high-level platforms to allow for level
boarding on trains, a commuter shelter area, a convenient commuter drop
off area, increased parking and enhanced lighting.
The Guilford Station is distinguished by a 2006 metalarchitecture design award.
The new Guilford Station blends seamlessly into the picturesque,
historical town of Guildford, while serving hundreds of commuters each
day.
Aside from the aesthetic benefits of these panels, the structural properties of the Series 300 metal roofing system ensure the safety of the passengers, and protect the Department of Transportation's investment.
The Series 300 system is the perfect solution to provide the beauty
and design flexibility of a metal roof, as well as longevity and
resistance to the harsh weather conditions that are prevelant in this
coastal New England town, and other stations along the Shore Line East
commuter rail line.
