How will this project affect air quality in the New Haven area?
With the I-95 NHHC Corridor Improvement Program, ConnDOT is implementing the Connecticut Clean Air Construction Initiative. Emissions of Particulate Matter, Nitrous Oxides and Carbon Dioxide will be reduced when construction equipment are powered by clean fuels, such as PuriNox, or are retrofit with emissions-reducing devices, such as oxidation catalysts. A long-term goal of the I-95 NHHC Corridor Improvement Program is to improve the flow of traffic through the New Haven region. Fewer idiling vehicles at shorter durations translates to reduced emissions of substances that are harmful to the environmental health of the region.
