Stamford,
CT— Connecticut Department of Transportation officials have
announced that there may be closures of one southbound lane and/or
northbound lane of traffic on Washington Boulevard, between South
State Street and Station Place, where it passes under the Metro-North
Railroad tracks, beginning on Monday, June 16 through Friday, June
27, 2003.
Work
will take place between the hours of 9:00 AM and 3:00 PM and 9:00
PM and 6:00 AM daily. These closures are necessary in order for
the bridge steel to be cleaned for painting.

pedestrian walkway on Washington Boulevard will be open during this
work. Pedestrians will also be able to cross the railroad using
the train station concourse or Atlantic Street to the east of the
station.
