CTDOT Developing Plans to Upgrade Roadway Signage in Greater Hartford

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) has initiated a project to replace post-mounted sheet aluminum signs on every non-limited access road paved under the Vendor-In-Place (VIP) paving program that occurred between 2018 and 2021 in District 1, covering approximately 188 miles of non-limited access roads in the Greater Hartford area. All the existing signs will be evaluated to ensure their necessity, proper placement, and compliance with current standards.

This project will bring critical roadway signage up to a state of good repair, improving safety for motorists,” said Connecticut Department of Transportation Project Manager Jonathan Corilla. All state-owned signs along these routes will be updated to ensure compliance and visibility, specifically nighttime visibility, by roadway users.” 

It is CTDOT policy to keep the public informed and involved when such projects are undertaken. It is important that the community shares its concerns with us to assist in the project’s development. At this time, it is anticipated that an informational meeting or formal public hearing will not be necessary.  

The design plans for this project are expected to be completed in December 2023 with a tentative advertising date of February 2024.  

If anyone has any questions or comments on this project, contact Lisa N. Conroy, Principal Engineer, at (860) 594-2744 or by e-mail at lisa.conroy@ct.gov. Please reference State Project No. 0171-0491.
