An off-ramp bridge for northbound Exit 8 on Interstate 95 in downtown Stamford is being replaced, and this weekend the ramp and stretches of various nearby streets downtown will be closed as some of the work gets done, the Connecticut Department of Transportation has announced. The closures start at 9 p.m. on Friday and continue through 6 a.m. on Monday and affect parts of South State Street, Atlantic Street and the Exit 8 ramp for traffic leaving I-95 North. The area is near the Stamford Railroad Station. Ongoing work for the project is expected to continue until mid-June 2018. Here’s ConnDOT’s announcement:
To accommodate construction of the new I-95 Exit 8 off-ramp bridge over Atlantic Street — between April 21, through April 24 — South State Street, Atlantic Street and the Northbound Exit 8 off-ramp in Stamford will be closed.
