Wrong Way driver detection recertification I95 in various towns in CT on April 16 2025

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is announcing wrong way driver detection maintenance and recertificaion on I-95 in North Stonington, Stonington and Groton starting the evening, April 16, 2025.

The Wrong-Way Detection System uses video cameras to detect vehicles that are traveling in the wrong direction. If a vehicle is detected, wrong-way signs outlined with multiple sets of red lights are activated and begin flashing to alert the driver they are traveling in the wrong direction. Additionally, the system alerts the CTDOT Highway Operations Center and local State Police Troop barracks in real-time, allowing staff to monitor the activities of the wrong-way driver on the ramp.

The following locations are included in this project:
