Welcome to the webpage for State Project No. 0083-0273, Pavement Rehabilitation and Safety Improvements on Milford Parkway (SR796) in Milford.
A virtual public informational meeting for the project was held on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. The recording of that event can be accessed at the CTDOT Virtual Public Information Meeting Video Library.
The purpose of this project is to bring the Milford Parkway into a state of good repair. This project is needed because the pavement is beyond its service life, roadside safety hardware is obsolete, acceleration and deceleration lanes are substandard and may contribute to congestion and crashes. In addition, Bridge No. 01445 has structural damage to one of the girders.
The proposed improvements will include milling and paving of the Milford Parkway, as well as to lengthen the acceleration and deceleration lanes by revising the lane arrangements with new pavement markings at the interchange with I-95 and Route 1. This comprises a dedicated exit lane from Milford Parkway Southbound onto I-95 North (Exit 2A). Multiple overhead signs will be replaced to accommodate the new lane arrangements. The roadside safety hardware will be replaced and brought up to current design standards. Bridge No. 01445 carrying Milford Parkway over East Rutland Road will be rehabilitated to address damage to a girder. Construction easements may be required on East Rutland Road for the proposed Bridge No. 01445 construction.
Construction easements may be required on East Rutland Road for construction on Bridge No. 01445.
Construction is anticipated to begin in spring 2026. The estimated construction cost for this project is approximately $25.4 million, with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.
