Welcome to the webpage for Project No. 0095-0258, Replacement of Bridge No. 05263, Sand Road over West Aspetuck River in the Town of New Milford.
A virtual public informational meeting for the project will be held on Thursday, March 2 at 7:00 p.m.
The purpose of this meeting is to provide the community an opportunity to learn about the proposed project and allow an open discussion of any views and comments concerning the proposed improvements. A Q&A session will immediately follow the presentation.
The purpose of the project is to replace the existing bridge which exhibits structural deficiencies.
There are right-of-way impacts associated with the proposed project. Temporary easements are anticipated on both sides of the roadway to accommodate the anticipated construction activities as well as slope easements for excavation and grading.
Construction is anticipated to begin spring 2025 based on the availability of funding, acquisition of rights of way, and approval of permit(s). The estimated construction cost for this project is approximately $2.5 million. This project is anticipated to be undertaken with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.
