Connecticut Turnpike

The Connecticut Turnpike, now officially the Governor John Davis Lodge Turnpike, is a freeway and former toll road in Connecticut that runs (from southwest to northeast) from Greenwich to Killingly. The Turnpike is signed as Interstate 95 from the New York border at Greenwich to East Lyme, and then as Interstate 395 from East Lyme to Plainfield. A short, unnumbered section (unsigned State Road 695) continues the Turnpike where it ends at Killingly, continuing as U.S. 6 at the Rhode Island border. The Turnpike is 128.47 miles (206.75 km) long; 88.48 miles (142.39 km) on I-95, 35.50 miles (57.13 km) on I-395, and 4.49 miles (7.23 km) on CT 695) and carries an annual average daily traffic of over 150,000 in some sections west of New Haven.

Most of the signage identifying the route as a "unified road" has been taken down in recent years. The easternmost section of the turnpike (SR 695) is not signed except as a connection between I-395 North and U.S. Route 6. Connecticut Turnpike trailblazers can still be found, although there are very few in existence today. One of the original Connecticut Turnpike trailblazers can be seen while driving along Center Street in Southport.
