On-time on-budget completion of Q Bridge project & CTfastrak
We are improving our transportation system as we speak, thanks to the investments we've made together. The on-time and on-budget completion of the Q Bridge project means that, on a daily basis, 140,000 motorists are getting to where they need to go with
greater ease.And with CTfastrak, more people are riding Connecticut transit buses to work. Exceeding all initial projections, average ridership on CTfastrak is as high as 19,000 people per weekday.

Invest in Jackson Labs & Bioscience Connecticut
Gov. Dannel Malloy is facing a scrum of Republicans. In 2014 Republicans are expected to again challenge Malloy on taxes and the size of the state budget, and on Connecticut's business climate, which critics blast as one of the worst in the nation.
Malloy, meanwhile, will point to long-term agreements he has made with state unions and the hundreds of millions of dollars he has invested in Jackson Labs,
Bioscience Connecticut, the busway and other economic development initiatives designed to attract or retain new business to the state.
Malloy will also likely emphasize that under his leadership the state has been able to eliminate projected spending deficits of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Innovation Ecosystem: connect investors for high-skill jobs
Just a few months ago, I announced the third plank of our economic development strategy--the Innovation Ecosystem. The program has one goal--connecting people that have good ideas with capital investors.
Innovation Ecosystem: connect investors for high-skill jobs
The key is making government an active partner rather than a bystander who watches markets develop elsewhere.

Develop CT's deepwater ports & Bradley airport
We will put in place an economic development strategy that makes sense for the 21st century economy, aggressively competing for lucrative biotech, nanotech, fuel cell technology and stem cell research jobs. We will aggressively develop our three
deepwater ports to spark commercial activity and decrease our reliance on heavy trucking and the congestion they bring to our highways. We will make Bradley International Airport an independent entity, freeing it to better grow its passenger base.
