CT DOT to close I-95N in Norwalk, Westport to demolish and replace bridge in one weekend

Connecticut drivers should avoid taking I-95 in Norwalk and Westport this weekend due to a major bridge replacement project at Exit 17. A section of I-95 northbound will be closed from Oct. 20 at 8 p.m. to Oct. 23 at 6 a.m. while the Connecticut Department of Transportation completes the first of two lateral shifts to replace the bridge over Saugatuck Avenue. DOT can accomplish the bridge replacement in one weekend because of the use of an accelerated bridge construction method called a lateral slide. Rosenblatt said the bridge replacement is one of the largest elements of the $104 million Norwalk-Westport I-95 improvement project.
