Plan to ease Hartford-area transportation troubles — including I-91/1-84 interchange — taking shape

A far-reaching plan for solving Greater Hartford’s transportation troubles is now taking final shape, including a half-dozen options under consideration for easing congestion at the I-91/1-84 interchange in Hartford, a notorious bottleneck. The interchange is at the center of the Greater Hartford Mobility Study, launched in 2020. The DOT declined to discuss details of the options now being considered for the interchange. But it is likely some are similar to those outlined in 2019 after an earlier study of the interchange. The I-84/I91 interchange is the busiest in Connecticut, serving 275,000 vehicles a day. A plan to bury the I-84 viaduct between Park and High streets in Hartford and I-91 along the Connecticut river in Hartford also were on the table. Both plans have been advocated for years by U.S. Rep. John B. Larson, D-East Harford.
