The Connecticut Department of Transportation remains busy with projects throughout the state even as the cold weather has settled in. Overnight work is planned to start on Route 9 Southbound in Middletown on Friday, Dec. 12 and it will run through next Thursday, Dec. 16. During the work over the five nights, Route 9 southbound between Exit 23B, or DeKoven Drive, and the Route 17 northbound on-ramp to Route 9 southbound will be closed to all traffic. The road work is a part of the Route 17 on-ramp to Route 9 northbound project in Middletown. The work also is part of the Department of Transportation’s “safety improvement initiative to mitigate front-to-rear end crashes at the ramp entrance to Route 9 Northbound.”
CT roadway and ramp projects begin this week. One will bring temporary highway closures.
