A restaurant and mini-mall are planned for Sandy Hook. They can’t be built before I-84 construction is complete.

A restaurant and mini-mall approved a year ago east of Newtown High School is waiting on the state to undertake major improvements at the Interstate 84 ramp intersections next door before undertaking construction. A DOT official familiar with the $25 million project said on Wednesday that the likely start date was early October. The project is expected to be complete in the fall of 2023. Once DOT construction begins and motorists get used to the new traffic patterns, it’s possible that construction could begin on the mini-mall, Walsh said. More likely, however, the Walsh Plaza project will have to wait until the ramp reconstructions are nearly complete before clearing ground for its own construction.
