Faced with unsafe roadway conditions in its economically-challenged village area, the Town of Coventry and CT-DOT sought a context sensitive solution for the reconstruction of Route 31.  The resulting design improved safety conditions, solved long-standing ecological issues, preserved historic character, sparked economic development, and generated community support.  Today, the roadway is home to new businesses and is a source of pride for residents.  The success of the project is credited to the collaboration among the design team including, BSC Group, RED Technologies, Tectonic Engineering, GM2 Associates, and VN Engineers, as well as CT DOT and the Town of Coventry
