A new study by the Connecticut Department of Transportation has determined that “limited, strategic widening” of Interstate 95 in Fairfield County could “yield major benefits” without requiring the reconstruction of the existing highway.
“Anyone who has traveled on I-95 during rush hour understands the urgency of addressing our congestion problems,” Malloy said. “It hurts our economy. Every day, commuters spend hours in traffic and businesses face unnecessary burdens in getting products to market. The report released today outlines a commonsense path toward reducing congestion and improving safety on one of our busiest and most important roads.”
