Saybrook Road Safety Upgrade
Description
Middletown’s long-awaited Saybrook Road safety overhaul is finally moving forward, targeting a stretch notorious for over 50 crashes in five years. With a $5.3 million budget—mostly covered by a state grant—the revised plan shrinks land acquisition needs and simplifies bike paths and sidewalks after early setbacks. Pedestrians, especially kids heading to Bielefield Elementary, will gain safer crossings and shoulders, while the road’s speed limit will drop to 30 mph. After years of delays, the city must now restart public consultations and property notifications before finalizing design—bringing this vital safety project closer to reality.
