There seems to be a construction boom in Connecticut. There are sound barriers currently going up at several locations in our states.

“We have about 150 sound barriers here in Connecticut right now that are existing. Most of those are along I-91, I-84, and I-95,” said Kimberly Lesay, Connecticut Department of Transportation.

As people living near the interstates has increased, they complained about the noise of trucks, cars, and sirens.
