    Snowy, icy conditions on multiple roads bring traffic to a crawl

    New London — The Gold Star Memorial Bridge has reopened in both directions after icy conditions forced it closed Monday morning, according to the state Department of Transportation, but delays remain.

    State police closed down the Interstate 95 bridge at about 7 a.m. after multiple vehicles spun out.

    They reopened first the southbound side, then the northbound side after calling in state DOT trucks to treat them.

    Crashes on Interstate 395, including in Montville and in Waterford, added to the traffic Monday morning.

    Google Maps shows that state routes 12 and 2A, in Ledyard and Montville, respectively, also are moving slowly.
