28 state-owned and maintained traffic signals in Western Connecticut are due for an upgrade, including in New Milford. The Connecticut Department of Transportation is developing plans to remove the nighttime flashing operation at the intersection of Route 202 at Route 109, install 360-degree stop bar detection cameras, add dilemma zone detection radar units, and add pedestrian countdown timers at locations that have existing exclusive pedestrian phases. At this time, the DOT says it is anticipated that an informational meeting or formal public hearing will not be necessary. The design plans for this project are expected to be completed by July 2023 with a tentative advertising date for construction of September 2023.
