New signs and exit numbers coming for Route 15

Parts of Route 15 will be getting new larger signs and new exit numbers starting on Monday.

The Connecticut Department of Transportation said it will also replace sign supports.

This is happening on Route 15 in Stamford, Greenwich, New Canaan, Milford, Orange, Woodbridge, New Haven, Hamden, North Haven, Wallingford and Meriden.

This project is scheduled to start on Monday, Sept. 9 and continue into 2026.

The state Department of Transportation said the existing signs are damaged or don’t meet the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices standards, which require larger signs, and new sign supports are needed as well.

The exit numbers will also change from sequential numbering to mileage-based numbering to meet federal standards.

The project will cost nearly $7.5 million, according to the state Department of Transportation.
