Famous for its chicken fingers, Raising Cane's has already opened in Enfield and Simsbury. Both openings caused significant traffic issues for the first few weeks of operation.
Wethersfield police Monday warned residents to expect similar traffic issues on the Silas Deane Highway when the restaurant does open.
The traffic is expected to back up on the northbound side of the Silas Deane between Executive Square and Town Line Road. Police said the traffic issues could last for approximately two weeks. Traffic is expected to be at its worst between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., and then again between 5 p.m. and 7 p.m.
