Project 0148-0215 Webpage

Welcome to the webpage for Replacement of Bridge Nos. 03129, 03130, and 03131 carrying State and Local Roads over Interstate-91 in Wallingford. 

A hybrid public informational meeting for the project will be held on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. at Wallingford Town Hall, Council Chambers, 45 South Main Street, Wallingford. The meeting will also take place on Zoom, and registration is required to attend virtually.

 

This meeting aims to inform the community about the proposed project, gather feedback, and answer any questions. This project previously conducted a public information meeting on Wednesday, September 24, 2025. Since then, Bridge No. 03133 carrying Carpenter Lane has been added to the project scope. The other three bridges include Bridge No. 03129 carrying East Center Street (State Road 738), Bridge No. 03130 carrying New Rock Hill Road, and Bridge No. 03131 carrying Durham Road.

This project is being completed utilizing the Design-Build Contracting Method, in which the final design and construction are completed under one contract. The Design-Build Team consists of a designer and contractor working together to complete the project as a single entity under the oversight of the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT). The final design scope of work for this project will be based upon the approved submittal of the selected Design-Build Team.

Right-of-way impacts associated with the proposed project are expected to be minor.

Construction is expected to start in spring 2028, depending on funding, acquisition of right-of-way, and permits. The current estimated construction cost is between $60-90 million, with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.
