The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is alerting the public that the replacement of the railroad crossing on Route 6 (Farmington Avenue). The existing railroad crossing, located near the intersection of Route 69 (Burlington Ave.) is being completely replaced to enhance safety and provide a smooth passage for motorists.
The work will require a vehicle detour for approximately three days during construction. Bicyclists and pedestrians will still be able to cross through a designated area.
Posted State Highway detours will utilize Routes 229, 72, and 69 to bypass the construction site.
Motorists and Commercial Vehicle Operators are required to utilize posted detour routes to avoid local streets and low underpasses.
All businesses on Route 6 will remain accessible throughout the short-term construction project.
The nearby railroad crossing at Maple Avenue will also be replaced as part of this project. Only one railroad crossing will be closed at any given time.
