Day Hill Road Interchange Study Meeting
Planned
The Town of Windsor and
the Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) are
hosting a public information meeting on Wednesday, August
10, 2005 at 5:30 PM in the Ludlow Room to discuss a portion
of the transportation study that effects the Day Hill Road
area.
Over the last couple of
years, (CRCOG) has been conducting a transportation study of
the area surrounding Day Hill Road, Interstate
91-Interchange 38. The study was initiated in response to
concerns raised during the Bradley Area Transportation Study
completed in June 2002.
The goal of the study was
to develop an interchange improvement concept that addresses
the future traffic demands and growth potential of the Day
Hill Corporate Area.
This meeting is open to
the public, business owners or any other interested parties.
For more information, call Tom Lenehan at 285-1804.
