Construction work to ease traffic congestion on Federal Road in Brookfield is moving into the next phase.  The demolition of Ramen House at 316 Federal Road and the home north of it are schedule to start tomorrow.  That work will last two weeks.  

Economic Development Director Greg Dembowski says there will be survey workers along the roadway over the next couple months preparing for the relocation of utility poles in the spring. Drivers are asked to take extra care when traveling through the area. No construction is planned until the Spring.  

This project is fully funded by the state Department of Transportation and includes 5,300 feet of roadway improvements from BJs’s to the shopping plaza at 317 Federal Road and 800 feet on Old New Milford Road. Improvements include sidewalks, additional turning lanes, new traffic signals and bus shelters. Construction is scheduled for completion in November 2023.
