Our highways team is working closely with Connecticut's DOT on the tanker fire that has closed I-95 in Norwalk. Please heed local authorities on detours and avoid the area if possible. Thank you to the first responders who are dealing with the fire and keeping other drivers safe.

Today in 1965, POTUS #LyndonJohnson signed the #HighwayBeautificationAct, which limited billboards & other forms of outdoor advertising, as well as other roadside messes, along #InterstateHighways. The act also supported local efforts to clean up the green spaces along roadways.
