Valley Service Road Extension

4. Notice of Scoping for Valley Service Road Extension

Municipality where proposed project might be located: North Haven, Connecticut

Address of Possible Project Location: Valley Service Road 

Project Description: Valley Service Road, a town owned and maintained roadway, begins at Connecticut Route 22 (Bishop Street) and extends northerly approximately 9,500 feet to a cul-de-sac.  It is a 32 foot wide, paved, two-way road carrying one lane of traffic in each direction.  The southerly 3,100 feet of Valley Service Road is a public road.  It provides access to an On-Ramp to Interstate 91 Southbound, various businessess, and the undeveloped land on each side.  The remaining roadway is presently not intended to be open to the public.  This project involves the extension of Valley Service Road from the general location of its existing terminus, a cul-de-sac, approximately 950 feet to the existing perimeter road around the former Pratt and Whitney site, now called the 415 Washington Avenue Partners LLC site.  The section of this perimeter road from the proposed intersection of Valley Service Road, east to Washington Street will become a public road upon completion of the Valley Service Road extension.  The purpose of this proposed project is to improve traffic circulation in the project area by making Valley Service Road a through road open to the public.
