HARTFORD, Conn. (WTIC Radio) - Connecticut gets some new welcome signs that travelers will see upon entering the state.

Governor Ned Lamont today unveiled new interstate highway “Welcome to Connecticut” signs that have been erected at seven key entry points near the state’s border.

The locations include: I-95 and I-84 entering from New York; I-91, I-84, and I-395 entering from Massachusetts; and on I-95 and U.S. Route 6 entering from Rhode Island.

“These new signs are not just markers on our highways, they are a reflection of what makes Connecticut special,” Governor Lamont said.

The State of Connecticut rebranded in 2023 followed by the launch of its “Make It Here” campaign designed to create a firm Connecticut identity, increase state pride, and strengthen perceptions of the Nutmeg State.
