Transportation Services Division

The Transportation Division has assumed all infrastructure responsibilities related to transportation of people and goods on city streets and sidewalks. These responsibilities include street design; pavement maintenance, repair, construction and reconstruction; and traffic and parking operations.

The city's responsibilities regarding legal traffic authority duties are the design and management of the traffic signal system, preparation and review of traffic impact reports and the control and operation of the computerized signal system.

The City Traffic Engineer, who heads this division, serves as liaison with the Connecticut Department of Transportation, the Capitol Region Council of Government (CRCOG), and other federal agencies.

Transportation Services also combines the engineering and street services functions within the same division. The engineering responsibilities include design and development of designated Parks Trust Fund capitol improvements, designated Urban Act and CDBG funded projects and joint State DOT/city street projects. The division is also responsible for snow plowing, leaf collection, and drainage not otherwise covered by the Metropolitan District Commission. The division also provides services in support of special events with traffic control and street cleaning and grass cutting on street medians.
