Drivers who use I-95 at Exit 15 in Norwalk should expect lane closures overnight, Monday through Friday, starting Monday, Nov. 16. The Connecticut Department of Transportation says the closures will run from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. while crews repair two bridges, but its advisory does not say which lanes, which direction or which ramps will close, or where traffic will be detoured.
The department posted the construction advisory on Nov. 6. The work, project 0102-0372, covers bridges 00058 and 03563 and includes repairs to the upper structure that carries traffic and the supports below it, along with sidewalk improvements. It is scheduled to finish Sept. 28, 2027, more than 10 months after the first closure. The department says dates may change because of weather or other unforeseen conditions.
The state awarded the job to McNamee Construction on Sept. 15, 2026, for $11,924,000. The department's District 3 office in New Haven is administering it.
What the advisory leaves out
The advisory says traffic control personnel and signs will guide drivers "through the work zone and detour," but it does not describe a detour or name a route. It also does not say whether the closures will affect northbound traffic, southbound traffic or both, how many lanes will be shut, or whether ramps at the exit will close.
The advisory lists 9 p.m. to 6 a.m., Monday to Friday, as the work schedule for the whole project: nine hours a night, five nights a week. Until the department fills in the missing details, drivers have the hours but not the locations they would need to plan a route.
