It is the Department’s policy to keep the public informed and involved when such projects are undertaken. It is important that the community share its concerns with us to assist in the project’s development. At this time, it is anticipated that an informational meeting or formal public hearing will not be necessary.
The design plans for the projects are expected to be completed in June 2017 and the projects are tentatively expected to be advertised for construction in August 2017.
Anyone interested in requesting information on this project may do so by contacting Mr. Patrick I. Onwuazor, Project Manager at (860) 594-2743. Please make reference to Project Nos. 171-393 and 171-394.
