The I-95 New Haven Harbor Crossing (NHHC) Corridor Improvement Program is one of Connecticut’s largest multi-modal transportation improvement initiatives. The program includes operational, safety and capacity improvements to over 7 miles of Interstate 95, including a new signature bridge over New Haven Harbor. In addition to new and upgraded Shore Line East commuter rail stations, there are numerous Transit and Transportation System Management (TSM) components included as part of the program. This report summarizes the current status of the implementation of the Transit and TSM components. A copy is available for 2008 and 2007.
This study focused on safety, traffic operations and strategies to reduce congestion and minimize delays. The Study Area encompasses Connecticut Route 68 (Church Street) in the Town of Wallingford from Hanover Street, on the west, to North Main Street Extension, on the east.
The purpose of the Regional Build-Out Analysis is to provide congestion management and planning tools to assist SCRCOG and its member municipalities in planning for future growth. The analysis provides data on the potential impacts from future development on major corridors throughout the region.
This report includes a comprehensive inventory and review of the 64 City owned and maintained traffic signals in Meriden. Existing signal equipment and intersection elements such as pedestrian and vehicular signal heads, cabinets, controller hardware, signage, and pavement markings were reviewed at each location for consistency with current State standards and National standards as published in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
Allen Avenue, Johnson Avenue and Preston Avenue are three streets in the City with very similar conditions. All of these streets lack storm drainage and have deficiencies in their vertical and horizontal alignments. This study makes recommendations for improvements to the three identified roadways to alleviate current safety hazards.

This study presents recommendations for improving the corridor with respect to both transportation functions and the contextual relationship with adjoining neighborhoods.
This report documents the latest update to SCRCOG’s Travel Demand Model, performed in June 2010, with a base year of 2010 and future year no-build model for 2040.
This report highlights the major activities of the South Central Regional Council of Governments (SCRCOG) during the 2009-2010 fiscal year.
This project focused on acquiring and collating data in preparation for an update of the Transit portion of the Region’s TransCAD model. The data created as a result of this project is available here.
This study reviewed the current modal split for transportation demand in downtown area. Data was gathered data from existing sources and previous estimates of modal split for several representative types of development (residential, commercial, institutional) were reviewed in order to provide a framework for better review and confirmation of projected volume/transportation demand as development emerges.
This report proposes a comprehensive trail system that interconnects with regional goals and plans, which would help improve transportation opportunities for Meriden and surrounding communities.
This study focused on service on and along U.S. Route 5 and North Plains Industrial Road/Washington Street to service community organizations, addressing increased demand and service schedule enhancements.
This study evaluated east/west routes in the Town and included recommendations on routings, traffic management, and highway amenities. It also includes recommendations for better east-west circulation, improved mobility, and safety and pedestrian and bicycle circulation.
The study was undertaken to identify and evaluate traffic and safety issues in the study corridor, assess need and desire for mitigation of the identified issues, and develop recommendations and a plan of implementation.
The South Central Regional Transportation Plan addresses broad goals for the transportation needs of the Region and is updated regularly. Each Plan provides direction for the Region on major policy issues on all modes of transportation. Regional needs and initiatives are outlined for utilization in framing transportation solutions during the period covered by each Plan. Past reports from 2007, 2004, and 2001 are also available.
