The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is developing plans to replace the existing signalized intersection of U.S. Route 1 and Route 100 with a single lane roundabout in Branford and East Haven. The purpose of the project is to improve intersection safety and address maintenance of the adjacent rock slope.
The present schedule indicates that the design will be completed in March 2027, with construction anticipated to start in fall 2027, assuming acceptance of the project, availability of funding, and receipt of any required right-of-way and environmental permits. This project will be undertaken with eighty percent (80%) Federal funds and twenty percent (20%) State funds.
It is CTDOT’s policy to keep the public informed and involved when such projects are undertaken and important that the community share its concerns with CTDOT to assist in the project’s development. If anyone has any questions or comments on this project, contact Mr. Scott Bushee, P.E., Principal Engineer, at (860) 594-2079 or by e-mail at scott.bushee@ct.gov.
