The Connecticut Department of Transportation is announcing the closure of the I-95 Northbound Exit 8 off-ramp in Stamford on Tuesday, December 19, 2017, to facilitate repairs. The closure will allow for necessary repairs to an existing utility cover which is impeding winter-weather snow removal operations.

The ramp will close on December 19, 2017, beginning at 9:30 AM and will reopen at 4:00 PM.  Motorists are advised to use exit 7 and follow the posted detour route.  

Motorists should be aware that modifications or extensions to this schedule may become necessary due to weather delays or other unforeseen conditions.
