PRESS RELEASE July 5, 2006
Mayor Richard Moccia is pleased to announce that the State of Connecticut Department of Transportation has notified the City that we have been selected for funding for the Safe Routes to School program for Naramake Elementary and Nathan Hale Middle Schools. The amount of the grant is $368,000. This grant will allow us to institute traffic calming measures, including a Traffic light at Tierney Street and Strawberry Hill and a new pedestrian crossing at Alrowood Drive. There are other traffic calming measures that will also be considered by the Traffic Engineering Department. On behalf of the City, I would like to congratulate the Department of Public Works for obtaining this grant, in particular Mike Yeosock, Senior Civil Engineer, who was the person primarily responsible for achieving this.
