  • Heroes Tunnel Project Route 15 Wilbur Cross Parkway State Project No
    HEROES TUNNEL PROJECT ROUTE 15 WILBUR CROSS PARKWAY STATE PROJECT NO. 167-108 PURPOSE AND NEED STATEMENT (Revised 7/3/18) PROJECT CONTEXT The Heroes Tunnel is located along the Wilbur Cross Parkway (Route 15) in the Town of Woodbridge and the City of New Haven, near the Town of Hamden border. The Heroes Tunnel is a 1,200-foot long tunnel, which passes through West Rock Ridge in New Haven and Woodbridge. The existing tunnel was constructed between spring 1948 and fall 1949 and consists of two 28-foot wide by 19-foot high barrels with horseshoe cross-sections. The northbound and southbound barrels of the tunnel consist of two 11-foot wide travel lanes with 6-inch shoulders and a 2-foot 6-inch wide raised maintenance walk on each side. The centerlines of the barrels are approximately 63 feet apart. It is the only tunnel to pass beneath a natural land feature in the State of Connecticut and is eligible for listing on both the National and State Registers of Historic Places. The Heroes Tunnel Project limits encompass the 1,200-foot tunnel and extend approximately 2,000 feet from the tunnel portals, in both the northbound and southbound directions, as illustrated in Figure 1 attached. EXISTING TRANSPORTATION NETWORK The Wilbur Cross Parkway is a limited access highway, classified as an urban principal arterial – other expressway, comprising a portion of Route 15 between Milford and Meriden where commercial vehicles, trailers, towed vehicles and buses are prohibited. As a continuation of the Merritt Parkway in Fairfield County, Route 15 is an important route between the New York City metropolitan area and central Connecticut.

  • Flexibility in Highway Design
    Flexibility in Highway Design U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration Page i This page intentionally left blank. Page ii A Message from the Administrator Dear Colleague: One of the greatest challenges the highway community faces is providing safe, efficient transportation service that conserves, and even enhances the environmental, scenic, historic, and community resources that are so vital to our way of life. This guide will help you meet that challenge. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has been pleased to work with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and other interested groups, including the Bicycle Federation of America, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and Scenic America, to develop this publication. It identifies and explains the opportunities, flexibilities, and constraints facing designers and design teams responsible for the development of transportation facilities. This guide does not attempt to create new standards. Rather, the guide builds on the flexibility in current laws and regulations to explore opportunities to use flexible design as a tool to help sustain important community interests without compromising safety. To do so, this guide stresses the need to identify and discuss those flexibilities and to continue breaking down barriers that sometimes make it difficult for highway designers to be aware of local concerns of interested organizations and citizens. The partnership formed to develop this guidance grew out of the design-related provisions of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 and the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995. Congress provided dramatic new flexibilities in funding, stressed the importance of preserving historic and scenic values, and provided for enhancing communities through transportation improvements.

  • Merritt Parkway Over Route 123 Norwalk, Connecticut
    Merit Award: Reconstructed Merritt Parkway over Route 123 Norwalk, Connecticut T he Merritt Parkway was originally constructed between 1934 and 1940. The design of the parkway included more than 70 bridges. The Merritt Parkway got its name from Congressman Schuyler Merritt, who was one of the highway’s earliest and most persistent advocates. The intent of this parkway was to provide a clear and unobstructed drive in a “park-like” setting from the Housatonic River in Stratford, Connecticut to the New York state line that was free of heavy commer- cial trucks. To go along with the parkway theme, a Highway Department staff architect named George Dunkelburger designed the facade of each bridge. The designs range from Neoclassical to Art Dec. No two bridges along the parkway have the same design, but many features such as the State Seal are duplicated. Most of the bridges are rigid frame structures that were designed to provide slender lines meant to prevent the steel frame from competing with the architectural features of each design. These bridges are a mon- ument to the art of combining form and function. The bridges of the Merritt Parkway have been celebrated for many years by the citizens of Connecticut. They have also been awarded the status of being list- ed on the National Register of Historic Places. At this time, many of the bridges are reaching the end of their service life. This has brought about a need for reha- bilitation of these beautiful structures. Rehabilitation Need The condition of the 65 year old bridge had become a concern, although the real driving force behind the project was the need for acceleration and decel- eration lanes on the parkway.

  • Learn More About Fairfield County History
    370 Beach Road, Fairfield, CT 06824 www.fairfieldhistory.org Learn More About Fairfield County History Transportation: The Arrival of the Railroad and Modern Highways In 1844, the Connecticut General Assembly approved the charter for the New York and New Haven Railroad Company to begin construction of a rail line. Four years later, in December of 1848, the first train came through Fairfield. Many of the town’s residents did not greet this event with enthusiasm since it threatened to change their quiet way of life. In fact, the railroad’s impact was profound. Suddenly New York City was only a two hour and ten minute ride away. Fairfield men could work in New York City and return the same day if they chose. The new mobility also affected women, who gained the freedom to visit friends and family in the city much more frequently. People who had previously grumbled about the construction of a railroad soon saw its advantages, including the economic benefits to the town. The arrival of the railroad also initiated a change in Fairfield’s identity, transforming its town center to a resort destination. Well-to-do city dwellers found respite in the peaceful setting with its ocean breezes, and some built lavish summer homes in the town. Others stayed at the fashionable and imposing new hotel, Fairfield House, situated near the town green. Construction of the hotel in 1848, the town’s first, coincided with the new railroad. The hotel stood on the northeast corner of Main Street (Old Post Road) and Center Street (Beach Road), and was said to be the largest of its kind in the state, boasting more than one hundred rooms.
