The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is developing plans to replace signs and sign supports at various locations statewide based on structural deterioration, damage by vehicle strike, or at locations that do not conform to Federal standards.
Additionally, on I-91 southbound approaching the I-95 interchange, the project will replace the signs, associated sign supports, and pavement markings to modify the exit to I-95 northbound into an option lane.
