The East Haddam Village District (EHVD) along the Connecticut River is a historical village, home to the famous Goodspeed Opera House and other landmarks that attract many visitors. We collaborated with the East Haddam Redevelopment Agency and CTDOT to address heavy roadway congestion along the state highway through the EHVD. We assessed the current traffic data in the EHVD and previous EHVD redesign proposals to foster ideas for creating three novel roadway redesigns, that aim to create safe areas for pedestrians, improve the infrastructure to better accommodate events at the Opera House, and provide opportunities for future redevelopment. We incorporated CTDOT suggestions into our assessment of the three designs, helping us select and finalize one design to put forward as our proposal.
