From the meeting
CTDOT held a public information meeting on proposed improvements to Route 9, deKoven Drive, and Rapallo Avenue in Middletown and Cromwell. The projects aim to improve safety and reduce congestion, and include removal of traffic signals plus minor right-of-way acquisitions and easements. Construction was expected to start in spring 2027, depending on funding, right-of-way acquisition, and permits.
The estimated total construction cost was $143 million, with 80% federal funds and 20% state funds.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Connecticut Department of Transportation's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
