Darien/Norwalk,
CT— The Connecticut Department of Transportation has announced
that reconstruction of the median area on I-95 northbound and southbound
between Exits 10 and 13, will begin on or about Monday, September
22, 2003 and will continue through the spring of 2004. Traffic will
be shifted away from the median during this time. Three 11-foot
lanes of traffic will be maintained both northbound and southbound
between these exits, with minimum shoulders available on the right
side of the highway. Lane restrictions associated with the project
will generally be limited to nighttime hours and will be conducted,
weather permitting.
This
project, scheduled to be completed in April 2005 calls for bridge
deck reconstruction, the reconstruction of the median areas, improved
drainage systems, new concrete barriers, as well as the milling
and resurfacing of I-95, both northbound and southbound, from Exits
10 through 16. Paving work between Exits 13 to 15 should be completed
in the next few weeks, weather permitting.
Motorists
are urged to proceed with caution and obey the posted speed limits
when traveling through this and all other construction zones.
