The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) will host two public meetings for the I-95 Stamford Planning and Environment Linkages (PEL) study in December.
“The purpose of the I-95 Stamford Study is to develop concepts to improve safety and mobility on I-95 between Exits 7-9, as well as plan for the future replacement of the I-95 bridge over Metro-North Railroad and Myrtle Avenue,” said Connecticut Department of Transportation Project Manager Jonathan Dean. “The I-95 Stamford team will be sharing study updates, the PEL screening process for alternatives, and next steps, along with opportunities to review and discuss the current conceptual highway alternatives. We encourage the public and local community use this opportunity to share feedback and ask questions regarding the study.”
