Some signs with Biden’s name being removed from DOT projects under new orders

New standards from the Trump administration have led the state Department of Transportation to take down large signs around Connecticut sites that were funded by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law of 2021, removing references to former President Joe Biden, who signed the $1.2 trillion act. While allowing green signs without Biden’s name to remain in place at dozens of project sites, white signs, about six-feet by four-feet, containing Biden’s name have been ordered removed. Josh Morgan, communications director for the DOT, said Monday that at the time of the law called the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which Biden signed in November of 2021, signage requirements under the U.S. Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices called for large green signs to be placed along highways and roadways without Biden’s name. Morgan estimated that “a handful” of signs with Biden’s name have been removed from project areas, while the green signs are being left in place, for the time being.
