Upgrade and Replacement of Motor Fueling Facility at DOT Garage in Franklin

The Department of Transportation's (Department) Office of Engineering is developing plans for the replacement of the waste water underground storage tank on the site of the existing Department’s garage at 38 Route 32 in Franklin. The purpose of this project is to upgrade the storage tanks to comply with the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection’s regulations.

It is the Department's policy to keep the public informed when such projects are undertaken. It is important that the community share their concerns with the Department to assist in the project's development. If there is adequate interest, an informational meeting will be conducted. At this time, it is not anticipated that a formal public hearing will be necessary.

The present schedule indicates that final design plans will be available in September 2020. The project will be state funded.

Anyone interested in receiving information on this project may do so by contacting the Project Engineer, Mr. Jesse A. Benson, at (860) 594-2966 or by e-mail at jesse.benson@ct.gov. Please make reference to the Franklin Bridge Facility Tank Replacement Project.
