The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is announcing wrong way driver detection maintenance and recertification will take place on I-95 southbound in Norwalk at Exit 14. This project is scheduled to occur on Thursday, December 18, 2025.
The Wrong Way Driver 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.
