Gov. Dan Malloy wants you off the roads of Connecticut.

He ordered all roads in Connecticut closed until further notice.  The traffic ban extends to all vehicles except for emergency response and recovery vehicles.

"It's critical right now that residents stay off the roads, so that our plows can continue their efforts to clear our streets and highways," said Governor Malloy.  "This is a record setting storm.  It's going to take time to dig out of the snow.  Stalled or abandoned vehicles will only slow that process.  Unless you face an emergency, please stay put."

The state banned motor vehicle travel on limited access highways beginning at 4 p.m. Friday, February 8, 2013.
