Welcome to the webpage for State Project 0168-0163, Roundabout at US Route 6, Route 61, and Quassapaug Road in Woodbury.
The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) will conduct an in-person public information meeting concerning a roundabout at US Route 6, Route 61, and Quassapaug Road in Woodbury at the Woodbury Senior/Community Center at 265 Main Street South on Thursday, May 15, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. The meeting location is ADA accessible.
An open forum for individual discussions with CTDOT project staff will begin at 6:00 p.m. with a formal presentation following at 7:00 p.m. A question and answer (Q&A) session will immediately follow the presentation.
The purpose of this project is to reduce high-speed crashes at the intersection of US Route 6, Route 61, and Quassapaug Road by converting the intersection to a modern roundabout with pedestrian sidewalks. This will increase motorist safety and eliminate crossing conflict points. This project also includes the replacement of Bridge No. 01980 carrying US Route 6 over Lewis Atwood Brook.
Right-of-way impacts will require temporary property easements to accommodate the construction.
Construction is anticipated to begin spring 2027, based on the availability of funding, acquisition of rights of way, and approval of permit(s). The estimated construction cost for this project is approximately $13 million. This project is anticipated to be undertaken with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.
