The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is announcing a detour for the closure of Route 9 southbound Exit 19 in Cromwell on November 3, 2022 from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.; and November 7, 9, and 10 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. to facilitate roadway reconstruction operations.
Remedial action was required to address impacts from the remnants of Hurricane Ida on September 1, 2021 in the vicinity of the Route 9 Southbound, Exit 19 off-ramp to Route 372 in Cromwell. As a result of these impacts, an Emergency Declaration project was signed by DOT Commissioner Joseph Giulietti on September 7, 2021 in order to stabilize and repair an existing 84” ACCMP that was found to be structurally compromised following the storm event. Initial efforts to stabilize the area commenced immediately on September 2, 2021 while the scope of the permanent repair was investigated. The finalized scope of the project included the full replacement of the existing 260 LF of 84” ACCMP by jacking a new 84” RCP as well as installation of new headwalls and compaction grouting.
DOT Project No. 0033-0133 was awarded to Arborio Corporation of Cromwell, CT on September 17, 2021 and is scheduled to be completed by November 30, 2022. This project is administered by the Office of Construction – District 1 in Rocky Hill.
