CT National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Phase 1a - Northern Rt. 7

The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) is managing a $52 million initiative funded through the federal NEVI program under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to expand electric vehicle charging infrastructure across the state. This effort focuses on enhancing the EV charging network along Connecticut’s Alternative Fuel Corridors, specifically targeting a 25-mile segment of Route 7 from the Massachusetts border to Muller Road in Kent. For Phase 1a of this project, CTDOT is seeking proposals for the installation of at least one EV charging station within one mile of any intersection along this route, with each station requiring a minimum of four DC Fast Charging ports. The project aims to improve EV accessibility and support the state's transition to cleaner transportation options. Proposals are due by June 7, 2024, and must be submitted in response to the solicitation numbered 21495. Interested parties should focus on projects located within Connecticut, adhering to the specified geographic and technical requirements. The contract is managed by CTDOT, with Rebecca Andreucci serving as the primary contact for inquiries. This initiative represents a significant investment in expanding EV infrastructure to promote sustainable transportation and reduce emissions across the region.
