The Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) and the Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT) have initiated a study to address safety, access management and development potential / growth along the Route 6 corridor in the towns of Bolton, Coventry, Andover and Columbia.  We will be working with our partners such as the Windham Region Council of Governments (WINCOG), town officials and the public over the next 12 to 18 months to identify constraints and opportunities throughout the 11-mile study corridor running between Notch Road in Bolton and Route 66 in the Town of Columbia.  The study will also evaluate the stretch of Route 66 between Route 6 and the Willimantic River, an additional 2-mile segment. 

We welcome your input and we're excited to be working within your communities! 

Please feel free to contact Ms. Jennifer Carrier, Project Manager, at jcarrier@crcog.org or 860 522-2217 x212.  We will continue to update this site with our findings and meeting announcements as the study progresses. 

Three sets of public workshops, each with two identical meetings, will be held throughout this study process.

The next set of public workshops is scheduled for:
