The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is likely to recommend the replacement of Westport’s William F. Cribari Memorial Bridge in Saugatuck due to an Environmental Assessment in March that will highlight the bridge’s multiple safety and traffic concerns.
“[The town] is waiting for an environmental report, which we were first told was going to come out in March, and we were told by the state that when that environmental report was finished, they were going to recommend that the bridge be replaced with what they call a highway standard bridge,” Lawrence Weisman, an attorney providing legal services on Land Use and General Litigation in Westport, said.
