Project Updates

Holiday Restrictions:  The Connecticut Department of Transportation is announcing that there will be no construction activities on major highways over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend from 6:00 a.m. Wednesday, November 27, 2024, to 6:00 a.m. Monday, December 2, 2024. We hope that you have a very happy Thanksgiving.

Here's a view of the new bridge. The team poured concrete and it's coming together. Traffic will be transitioning to this portion of the highway in December. At that time, the demolition of the current bridge will begin.
