ConnDOT eAlert: News from the Connecticut Department of Transportation

Ospreys Nesting on New Platform on Swing Bridge

State and local officials today toured the East Haddam swing bridge to see first-hand the pair of ospreys nesting on the new platform built for them by the Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT), which owns and operates the 102-year-old bridge that opens and closes for marine traffic below on the Connecticut River.
CTDOT Commissioner James P. Redeker also announced that the department has begun "tweeting" messages to interested citizens when the bridge opens and closes. Citizens must sign up to receive the messages through twitter.com.
