摘要：	The Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) is facing a number of issues in planning for what will be the State's largest highway construction project: the I-95 New Haven Harbor Crossing/Pearl Harbor Memorial Bridge (aka the "Q" Bridge) Corridor Improvement Program. This paper highlights efforts of ConnDOT and its consultant Parsons Brinckerhoff Quade and Douglas Inc., in planning for the project. It also demonstrates that while the installation of Advanced Traffic Management Systems have helped reduce traffic congestion along our nation's highways, the systems themselves may be an additional encumbrance to future reconstruction activities. Careful planning and additional expense are required in order to maintain the systems during construction, but the benefits that these systems provide in allowing traffic monitoring within a construction zone, greatly offset the additional costs.
