 The Merritt Parkway
The Merritt Parkway, a 37-mile stretch of Route 15 in Fairfield County, is known as the Queen of Parkways with good reason: it's the most scenic highway in Connecticut, and recognized as one of the most scenic of its kind in the nation.
Though the Parkway opened as a four-lane divided highway with controlled access (with a few temporary at-grade crossings), the original plans were much less ambitious, and would not have resulted in a road with the national prominence it enjoys today.
The Parkway was built in the northern half of a 300-foot right of way, whose primary purpose was to control access to the road; not until 1939 did the state have the legal right to restrict access to a highway, so it created a buffer zone of purchased land.
