Cedar Street is a bus rapid transit station on the CTfastrak line, located near the intersection of Cedar Street (CT-175) and Fenn Road in Newington, Connecticut. It opened with the line on March 28, 2015.^[1] The station consists of two side platforms serving the busway, with two center passing lanes to allow express buses to pass buses stopped at the station.^[2] Along with East Street, it serves Central Connecticut State University.

The New York and New England Railroad (and predecessor Hartford, Providence and Fishkill Railroad) served a station named Claytons at Cedar Street.^[3] It opened around 1872, supplementing and ultimately replacing Pratts station, and was closed sometime after 1915.^[4]

An access road for the station, Myra Cohen Way, is named for longtime Newington councilwoman Myra Cohen.^[5]
