Send an email today!
What is CT DOT planning?
A four-year-long, $205 million project is due to start in the Fall of 2022. The project focuses on road resurfacing, bridge rehabilitation, and safety improvements from the New York border (Exit 2) all the way through Exit 6 in Stamford. The project does nothing to address noise pollution from I-95 that disrupts sleep, reduces property values, and adversely impacts our health.
Minutes from DOT public information meeting held virtually on January 21
