Bill Summary
To study the feasibility of installing an additional traffic lane on a portion of Interstate Route 84 in order to significantly reduce traffic congestion.
AI Summary
This bill directs the Commissioner of Transportation to conduct a feasibility study for adding a new traffic lane on Interstate Route 84, specifically on both the eastbound and westbound sides, spanning from exit 7 in Danbury to exit 20 in Waterbury. The primary goal of this study is to explore potential solutions for significantly reducing traffic congestion along this stretch of highway. By examining the practicality of expanding the roadway, the study will help transportation officials determine whether adding a lane could effectively alleviate current traffic challenges in this corridor. The bill is essentially a preliminary step to understand the technical, environmental, and financial considerations involved in potentially expanding the interstate's capacity, which could ultimately lead to infrastructure improvements that might ease travel times and reduce traffic bottlenecks for commuters and travelers using this section of Interstate 84.
