I-95 closures to cause delays in Norwalk, Westport for rock removal, Saugatuck Ave bridge replacement

Drivers may experience significant delays on Interstate 95 due to highway closures in the Norwalk and Westport area over the next month, as the Connecticut Department of Transportation conducts work as part of a major $103 million project. From Oct. 16 to Oct. 31, the northbound I-95 Exit 17 ramp will be closed, according to CTDOT. The southbound Exit 17 ramp will also face periodic closures of 15 minutes, CTDOT said. Throughout October, CTDOT will be removing rocks along I-95 in the area. As a result, there will be periodic highway closures through Friday, Oct. 27. The closures will affect both southbound and northbound traffic. All northbound traffic will be diverted to the southbound side of the highway during the construction work. The $103,411,848 contract for the project was awarded to Yonkers Contracting Co. Inc. on April 30, 2022, and is scheduled to be completed on Nov. 1, 2024.
