    CTDOT Developing plan Realign the I91 Ramps at Exit 24 in Rocky Hill

    From the CTDOT website:

    The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is developing plans to realign the I-91 north and south ramps at Exit 24 in Rocky Hill. This project involves realignment of the I-91 north and south ramps at Exit 24. Slips ramps at the interchange will be removed to create shorter pedestrian crossings at the ramps. Full signal upgrades and integration into the Computerized Traffic Signal System are also included. The purpose of the project is to address the signalized intersections at the I-91/CT 99 ramps that were originally included in project 0118-0187 but were broken out from that project in order to expand the scope of work on the I-91 ramps, to include additional pedestrian safety improvements.

    The present schedule indicates that the design will be completed in April 2026, with construction anticipated to start in the Fall of 2026, assuming acceptance of the project, availability of funding, receipt of any required right-of-way, and environmental permits. This project will be undertaken with one hundred percent (100%) State funds.

    It is the CTDOT’s policy to keep the public informed and involved when such projects are undertaken and important that the community share its concerns with the CTDOT to assist in the project’s development.

    If anyone has any questions or comments on this project, contact Melanie Zimyeski, Project Engineer, at (860) 594-2144 or by e-mail at Melanie.Zimyeski@ct.gov. Please make reference to State Project No. 0118-0191.

    How should Rocky Hill develop? Share your thoughts!

    Our town’s Planning and Zoning Commission is updating the Rocky Hill Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD) and they want your input.

    What is the POCD?

    Every ten years, Rocky Hill prepares a Plan of Conservation and Development. This document  is a long range advisory plan outlining the community’s goals  and vision for the  future. These  plans must be updated every ten years per State law.  

    The POCD discusses a range of issues, like housing, open spaces, conservation, and public transportation. Take a look at the 2015 plan to learn more about what goes into the document.

    The Planning and Zoning Commission wants input from the public. You can find the Town’s current Plan of Conservation and Development (POCD) on the Town’s website.

    How can I participate?

    Maybe you care about bike routes or have ideas about housing. This survey is a great way to communicate those ideas to the Town.

    The Town has prepared a survey with a series of questions. Please take 5 minutes to answer them and provide the town with input!

    You can also attend the next Planning and Zoning meeting about the POCD. That meeting will happen on March 26 at 630 PM. More details here.
