LANE CLOSURE INFORMATION:
Lane closures SB and NB every night, Monday through Thursday for the duration of the Project which is scheduled to be completed at the end of October next year.
The locations of the closure within the Project limits will vary based on the operations being performed:
- The earliest we can close lane is 7PM SB starting at exit 40A.
- The earliest we can take a lane NB is 9PM.
- The Contractor avoids working Friday night but may work if work was canceled earlier in the week because of weather or if theyare paving during the week.
- On Fridays the earliest lane closures can occur is 8PM SB and 9PM NB.
USEFUL TRAVEL TIPS:
- Avoid the beginning of the work shift (7pm to 10pm) because that’s when lane closure patterns are installed, and traffic will slow
and back-up. - Avoid when traffic patterns are being removed in themorning – typically 4:30AM to 6AM.
OTHER USEFUL INFORMATION:
- If you are travelling on the Merritt Parkway (New York Line to Stratford) and Wilbur Cross Parkway (Stratford to Meriden) the same useful
travel tips can be applied on other Projects as they will have similar starttimes and construction constraints. - For more information on other projects on the Wilbur Cross Parkway click the blue button below.
Please note that these closures can change at any time based on weather or resources.
