A couple of things that are driving me batty about the new signage.

1. Why can't they just use Storrs instead of Mansfield for CT 195?  Most travelers using that exit have heard of Storrs but not Mansfield.  That would be like using Windham instead of Willimantic or Winchester instead of Winsted.

2.  It is absolutely ridiculous how EB and WB signage now have to match; why would anyone in their right mind going westbound go down to Willington and take CT 32 back north to get to Stafford Springs?  CT 190 goes there, and you don't have to go an extra 15 miles out of the way.  I suppose these are for the people coming off of 90 East in Sturbridge that are going to NYC
