Enhancement of regulatory and warning signs on unsignalized state road intersections in Western Connecticut

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is developing plans for the systemic application of multiple low-cost proven safety countermeasures at single-lane, higher crash risk, stop-controlled intersections at the locations in the list below. The application of these Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) proven safety countermeasures (enhanced signing and pavement markings) increases driver awareness and recognition of the intersections and potential conflicts. 

 

There are approximately 128 locations that have been screened and identified by the Department that may benefit from enhanced signing across the following 29 Municipalities in Western Connecticut.
