Wrong Way Detection Activations on I95 in various cities in Connecticut

7/29/2025

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is announcing wrong way detection activations will take place on I-95 northbound in Fairfield at Exit 23, Stratford at Exit 32, Norwalk at Exit 14 and I-95 southbound in Darien at Exit 10 and Stamford at Exit 8. This project is scheduled to occur on Monday, August 4 and be completed on Friday, August 8, 2025.

The Wrong Way Detection System uses video cameras to detect vehicles that are traveling in the wrong direction. If a vehicle is detected, wrong way signs outlined with multiple sets of red lights are activated and begin flashing to alert the driver they are traveling in the wrong direction. Additionally, the system alerts the CTDOT Highway Operations Center and local State Police Troop barracks in real-time, allowing staff to monitor the activities of the wrong way driver on the ramp.

The work is being performed by State Forces.
