“The replacement of traffic control signals will modernize aging infrastructure to current standards, maintaining reliable operation at various intersections in southwest Connecticut,” said Connecticut Department of Transportation Project Manager Kaethe Podgorski. “We encourage the public to attend this meeting to share their feedback with the CTDOT project team to incorporate into the design.”
Right-of-way impacts are expected to be minimal around new signal equipment and sidewalks at some project intersections.
Construction is expected to begin winter 2026. The estimated cost is $16 million, with 100% state funds.
