During the evening and morning hours Yale Shuttle Buses (orange line) park in front of St. Joseph's Church and idle for 15 minutes at a time. It's disruptive to local residents and a source of both noise and air pollution. Yale should address this.

I was told by Traffic and Parking that only Yale PD handles Yale vehicles. I would call NHPD and YPD EVERY MORNING until it stops- insist and I mean INSIST on tickets being given. Show the Policea copy Public Act No. 02-56 that gives an officer the right to issue a ticket- the Yale Transit bus IS A SCHOOL BUS unless Yale can prove otherwise.
If they won't enforce the law notify the DEP Field Staff and the State Police.
I wouldn't hold your breath on Yale Transit doing anything at all. I have already been that route with idling buses.
What's the Law in Connecticut?
Connecticut law prohibits vehicles of all kinds from unnecessary idling for more than 3 minutes. Provisions are made for weather extremes, certain service vehicles and health-related conditions.
For text on Anti-Idling Regulations in Effect in Connecticut:
R.C.S.A. 22a-174-18 - This regulation applies to ALL vehicles in Connecticut and is enforced by DEP Field Staff.
An Act Concerning the Idling of School Buses; Public Act No. 02-56; Signed May 9, 2002. This regulation gives ticketing authority to police who witness school buses idling for longer than 3 minutes.
