New Project Announcement - Connecticut River Bridge

July 22, 2024

We are excited to announce another project award.  Five Star Electric (FSE), as a subcontractor to O&G/Tutor Perini, a joint venture, is in the process of being awarded the Connecticut River Bridge project for Amtrak. The Connecticut River Bridge, located in the Town of Old Saybrook, is the last crossing of the Connecticut River before it reaches Long Island Sound. The project will expand our footprint into the State of Connecticut and will include the replacement of the existing bridge with a new moveable bridge.

Work on the project is expected to start immediately and end in 2030, a duration of approximately 68 months. FSE will furnish and install raceway infrastructure and cabling to connect systems crossing the bridge, as well as a new security system, lighting and submarine cables for communications and signals.

Congratulations to the estimating team on a job well done!
