Officials expect $1.8B this year for transportation priorities

Road and bridge improvements will dominate the state’s transportation priorities through 2018, officials said today.

Projects slated for the next five years include widening of 2.7 miles of I-84 in Waterbury; replacing the Q Bridge on I-95 in New Haven and the Moses Wheeler Bridge on I-95 in Stratford; rehabilitating the Putnam Bridge in Glastonbury and the Merritt Parkway in Stamford; and making improvements to I-95 in Norwalk, according to an announcement from Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s office.

The state expects to have $1.8 billion this year for its transportation capital plan, which would be up $200 million from last year.
