MONROE, CT — The 24rd annual CT United Ride, the state’s largest 9/11 tribute featuring hundreds of motorcycles, will roar through town on Sunday, Sept. 7. The route goes along Route 25 (Main Street) from Newtown to Trumbull.
Police Lt. Kevin McKellick said the riders tend to arrive in Monroe sometime between 12:30 and 1 p.m.
“I usually takes about a half hour for the entire procession to make its way through town,” he said. “Unless you are watching it, it’s wise to avoid Main Street from roughly 12:30 to 1:30-2 p.m.”
Though Main Street will be open to regular traffic heading north toward Newtown, police said officers will close Route 25 to traffic heading south — with no left turns — until the Ride rolls through on its way to Trumbull.
