Traffic volume was lower by more than 43 percent on three consecutive days (March 21-23) before increasing to negative-38.6 percent on March 24, the most recent day for which statistics were available. The break in traffic is allowing the DOT to facilitate construction work on its Route 8/I-84 Interchange (Mixmaster) rehabilitation project in Waterbury, with lane closures extended to weekdays and weekends. “That’s the irony of the situation, that more work can be done without causing traffic delays,” Nursick said. “We are looking into whether we could do the same with some of our other projects.”
