Contract D, State Project No. 14-173
Project Area: Lake Saltonstall to Interchange 54
Project Scope: Contract D is located in Branford and incorporates reconstruction of approximately 3350 meters (2.1 miles) of I-95 from the western project limit, the eastern shore of the Lake Saltonstall Bridge, to the eastern project limit, Interchange 54 (Cedar Street). A third travel lane will be added in each direction. The Todds Hill Road Bridge over I-95 will be replaced and the Cherry Hill Road Bridge over I-95 will be rehabilitated. The I-95 bridge over the Exit 53 southbound on-ramp (Branford Connector) will be widened. Noise barrier walls will be constructed along I-95 at Exit 54 and Todds Hill and Cherry Hill Roads. The Exit 54 (Cedar Street) commuter parking lot will be relocated to Exit 55 (Route 1), due to the widening of Cedar Street to accommodate turning lanes. Both service areas on I-95 in Branford will be resurfaced and the ramps reconfigured. Full shoulders, a new median barrier, drainage, signing, and lighting will be provided throughout the project.
