In the U.S. state of Connecticut, state highways are grouped into signed routes, unsigned special service roads (SSR), and unsigned state roads (SR). State roads are feeder roads that provide additional interconnections between signed routes, or long entrance/exit ramps to expressways.
The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) maintains a system of state highways to serve the predominant flow of traffic between towns within Connecticut, and to towns in surrounding states. State highways also include roads that provide access to federal and state facilities (Special Service Roads).
Special service roads are roads that connect a federal or state facility (including state parks and some Interstate Highway interchanges) to a signed state route. Roads classified by the Connecticut Department of Transportation as special service roads are given an unsigned number designation between 400 and 499, or 1001.
CTDOT also oversees the CTtransit bus system, as well as the CTfastrak bus rapid transit service. Prior to the establishment of the Connecticut Airport Authority in 2011, CTDOT had previously overseen the development and operation of Connecticut's state-owned airports, including Bradley International Airport .
