Lochner Line Thruway Route Planned Through Fairfield Areas

The proposed Lochner Line route designated as a thruway cuts across Fairfield hitting the east bank near Henderson road and follows North Pine Creek road past St. Thomas cemetery. It crosses Mill Plain road near the Coster estate and Unquown road midpoint, with multiple interchanges planned and property takings extending to Henderson road, the Frederick Sturges Jr estate, the Nathaniel Wheeler estate, and near Elm street and Kings highway cutoff.

Fairfield chooses Lochner line for throughway with variations

State Highway Commissioner G Albert Hill selects the Lochner route with changes for a five mile expressway through Fairfield costing about 12.3 million dollars including 7.7 million for construction and 4.6 million for rights of way. The plan impacts 309 families and passes Holland Hill school while rejecting town preferred routes near the duPont plant and railroad station.
