New Fairfield wraps around Candlewood Lake on Route 37 and Route 39, and a ticket on either is heard at Danbury Superior Court (GA3).
New Fairfield occupies the northern edge of Fairfield County, a town pressed against the New York line on one side and against the broad waters of Candlewood Lake on the other. Its roots reach back to the 1720s, when settlers from Fairfield negotiated for the land with the Schaghticoke and their sachem, Chief Squantz โ whose name still marks Squantz Pond at the town’s edge. The deed was finally signed in 1729, the town was incorporated in 1740, and for its first century New Fairfield was a quiet community of farms and small enterprises. In 1802 the western part split off to become the separate town of Sherman, the combined territory having grown too large for residents to reach the meetinghouse.
The event that defined modern New Fairfield came in the late 1920s, and it was entirely man-made. Connecticut Light & Power dammed and flooded the Big Basin and surrounding lowlands to create Candlewood Lake, a vast reservoir for hydroelectric generation that filled in a matter of months in 1928. Overnight, a rural timber-and-farm town found itself on the shore of the largest lake in Connecticut, and over the following decades it transformed into a sought-after residential and resort community.
That lake now defines daily life. Candlewood’s coves and shoreline are lined with homes, docks, and beaches, and Squantz Pond State Park draws swimmers, boaters, and hikers from across the region. Away from the water, New Fairfield keeps a wooded, small-town character, its hills rising toward the New York border, but the rhythm of the town โ especially in summer โ follows the lake.
The town’s traffic moves on just two main roads. Route 37 and Route 39 carry residents and visitors through the town center and around the lake, connecting New Fairfield to Danbury to the south and Sherman to the north. These roads see steady seasonal and commuter traffic and regular enforcement, with citations common along the busier stretches near the lake. We follow these roads and the equipment used along them, which is generally where the violations described below begin.

Connecticut has two very different camera systems watching drivers. One mails you a $50 fine. The other, Flock, feeds police investigations. Here's how to tell them apart.
Read Article โYou're not required to hire one, but a ticket can carry more than a fine โ points on your license and a possible insurance increase. An attorney who handles Connecticut traffic matters can review your options and frequently appear for you so you don't have to take time off.
Continuances buy time but don't resolve anything on their own. Pushing the case off again and again usually just stretches it out. It's generally better to have the ticket reviewed and a real strategy chosen.
New Fairfield is served by Danbury Superior Court (GA3), the geographical-area courthouse that handles motor-vehicle matters for the town and several neighboring communities in northern Fairfield County.
For many traffic matters an attorney can appear at the Danbury courthouse on your behalf, so you may not need to attend yourself. We can review your ticket and explain what your appearance would involve.
Depending on the violation and your record, a conviction can add points to your Connecticut license and may affect your insurance. How serious that is depends on the specifics, which is why it helps to review the ticket before deciding how to handle it.
