Type | Complexity | Priority | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
Small | Moderate | Long term | $880,000 |
Goals:
Improve future capacity issues for Route 16 approach by modifying lane arrangement to accommodate forecast future traffic volumes
Elements:
Modify lane arrangement of Route 16 approach to provide a dedicated left-turn and a shared left-through-right turn lane to increase the left turn capacity of the Route 16 approach
Provide two westbound receiving lanes to accommodate the traffic from Route 16
Coordinate the proposed lane use modifications with the future operations of the intersection due to the location of the proposed driveway of the CTDOT Maintenance Facility located along the north side of Route 66 (currently under construction)
Permits:
CTDOT approval and/or encroachment permit for construction within CTDOT right-of-way
