Title: US 1 Traffic Circle over the Byram River (New York-Connecticut Border)
Post by: D-Dey65 on April 06, 2020, 03:09:28 PM
Is it just me, or is there something fascinating about the traffic circle along US 1 on the border between Port Chester, New York and Greenwich, Connecticut?

There is something fascinating that both ends of US 1 in CT are at traffic circles.

IIRC, the "circle" at the Connecticut/Rhode Island line on U.S. 1 is entirely in Rhode Island.

Yes, but 1 is already starting to widen into the divider island at the state line.

No disagreement there.

Plus, both borders cross with a small river (Byram with NY and Pawcatuck with RI).
