Norwalk photos: Grumman Avenue overpass

(Harold F. Cobin)

Work on the Grumman Avenue overpass has nearly come to completion with the installation of a refurbished decorative railing, to restore the historic bridge appearance as required.

Cristiano & Son of New Britain did the painting and NikLyn Corp. of New Haven did the metal restoration, according to Connecticut Department of Transportation Communications Manager Josh Morgan.

Correction, 1:26 p.m. Friday: Railing was refurbished, not replicated.

ConnDOT rebuilt the Grumman Avenue overpass last year, removing the existing fencing on both sides. A Waters Construction supervisor said last year that the State could not install permanent replacement fencing until it received the historically appropriate facsimile decorative railing.
