The Madison exits on I-95 are 62 (Hammo), 61, and 60 s/b (Mungertown). Exit 29 on 95 is Bridgeport.

Maybe they need longer jail sentences for opioids. We can make excuses but treatment was not really a big thing with crack. Also gun violence associated with crack killed thousands too.

I love seeing people clutch their pearls about an irreverent username on reddit

You still grew up well enough to call yourself "hymen_destroyer"

No one thinks of Connecticut at all.

They also have certain stipulations to be on there. I worked at a chain in Enfield and they had to put a pay phone in and start serving breakfast to get on the sign on 91.
This was around 2010 so I’m sure they’ve relaxed those payphone rules.

Isabelle et Vincent in Fairfield is a great French Bakery. They have early hours and aren't open every day, so I would suggest calling first. Not sure about the cakes but the other baked goods are great.

As u/mgr86 noted below, it's pretty expensive to get a business on that sign. However, if this is Exit 29 on I-95, then that means it's in Bridgeport. That means it's close to:
- Beardsley Zoo
- Seaside Park
- Webster Bank Arena
- P.T. Barnum Museum
- Captain's Cove Seaport
- Saint Mary's By The Sea Park
- Discovery Museum and Planetarium
- Bass Pro Shop building with the bowling alley, indoor waterfall, etc.
- Housatonic Museum of Art
- Bridgeport History Center
- Fayerweather Island Lighthouse walk
- Bridgeport Farmer's Market
- Mongers Market
- Tours of historic homes in Black Rock
I know that this sub loves both the "ThErE'S NoThInG To dO In cOnNeCtIcUt" and also the "Bridgeport bad" tropes, but there is a bunch to do within city limits. (I didn't even include other items in Fairfield County or New Haven County.)

Where is there an exit 29 in Madison?

I'm guessing this is either Madison or Southington? What used to be on that sign?

There’s a boat launch area on one side off Alexander Rd in New Britain but on the Farmington side there’s a path blocked off that lead to a beach area and pavilion I believe.

Also, I badmouth the weather but from, say, May 1 to October 31, there's almost no place I'd rather be than the CT shoreline. I love our warm months. Gets a little hot and muggy sometimes sure, but it's beautiful.

Head over to norwalk and you’ll find what you need. Just avoid Don Carmelo’s.

They prevent death, and disease. That's healthcare.
