The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is developing plans to replace existing traffic control signal equipment with new equipment to meet current CTDOT standards at 21 locations in Enfield, Hartford, Middletown and South Windsor. At applicable locations, pedestrian control features (countdown pedestrian indications, accessible pushbuttons, sidewalk ramps, and sidewalk connections) will be upgraded in an effort to improve accessibility and pedestrian safety. CTDOT will coordinate with the towns during the design phase. The following intersections are included:
