Seven miles of State Route 15, from the Connecticut line to the junction with Route 20, are being converted into a four-lane speedway. The project is now in the grading stage, according to Lester H. L. Olson, assistant engineer. He expects completion some time next fall.
Olson said, however, that the section of the new road from the Quinnepeck River to the Connecticut border will be ready for use later this spring.
When complete, the highway will consist of two separate two-lane roadways. In places these will be as much as 500 feet apart. Olson does not expect the additional lanes to greatly reduce travel time, but "driving will be safer."
