“This project will upgrade the existing circular intersection to a modern roundabout to improve traffic operation and safety for all users,” said Connecticut Department of Transportation Principal Engineer Scott Bushee. “We encourage the public to attend this meeting to share their feedback with the CTDOT project team to incorporate into the design.”
The proposed improvements will require two sliver property acquisitions that will be used for the construction of the new roadway geometry and sidewalk. Minor rights and easements may also be required and will be added as the design develops.
Construction is anticipated to begin fall 2027 based on the availability of funding, acquisition of rights of way, and approval of permit(s). The estimated construction cost for this project is approximately $5 million. This project is anticipated to be undertaken with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.
