History

In the 19th century, part of Route 67 was a toll road known as the Oxford Turnpike that connected the towns of Seymour and Southbury via Oxford. [4] The Oxford Turnpike was chartered in May 1795 and was one of the two earliest private toll roads in Connecticut. In 1922, the road from Woodbridge to Southbury (the old Oxford Turnpike) was designated as State Highway 147 and the road from Southbury to New Milford (via Roxbury and Bridgewater) was designated as State Highway 125. Route 67 was established in the 1932 state highway renumbering from Bridgewater (beginning at modern Route 133, which was then part of an old alignment of Route 25) to New Haven (continuing past Woodbridge along current Route 63). In 1932, the Highway Department of the US state of Connecticut (now known as the Connecticut Department of Transportation) decided to completely renumber all its Route 133 is a state highway in western Connecticut, running from U Route 25 is a 2859-mile primary State highway connecting the city of Bridgeport and the town of Brookfield in the U Route 63 is a secondary state highway in the US state of Connecticut from New Haven up to Canaan, running for 52 When Route 25 was realigned in the mid 1940s, Route 67 took over the old Route 25 alignment to New Milford. In 1959, Route 67 was relocated to a new road (New Milford Road East) bypassing Bridgewater center, with the former alignment (Clapboard Road) becoming Route 67A. Route 67A was decommissioned, becoming unsigned SR 867, in 1964. Route 67 was truncated to its current eastern end at Route 63 in Woodbridge by 1964. [2]
