The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is announcing that a milling and resurfacing project will be performed on State Route 529 (New Britain Avenue) in West Hartford and Hartford from Route 173 (Newington Road) to Newington Avenue starting Sunday, July 21, 2024. The project DOT01710506CN consists of milling and resurfacing a 1.33-mile segment of State Route 529 (New Britain Avenue) in West Hartford and Hartford from Route 173 (Newington Road) to Newington Avenue. This project is scheduled to begin milling by Rafferty Fine Grading from Sunday, July 21, 2024, to Tuesday, July 23, 2024. The resurfacing segment of this project is anticipated to begin on Wednesday, August 7, 2024, to Monday, August 12, 2024, by Tilcon.
In conjunction with the milling, the roadway will be restriped as one lane in each direction with a center two-way left-turn lane between the intersections of South Road in West Hartford and Newington Avenue in Hartford in an effort to enhance safety and to provide increased shoulder widths for bicyclists. The revised lane use will be evaluated during this time frame prior to the resurfacing. Anyone who would like to share feedback on the revised lane use can send it to DOT.TrafficEngineering@ct.gov.
