Connecticut removes Rhode Island from travel advisory; 32 states and 2 territories now on list

Connecticut updated its travel advisory list Tuesday, removing neighboring Rhode Island from the list of travel-restricted places.

In total, Connecticut removed four states — Alaska, New Mexico, Ohio and Rhode Island — from the list, but added Hawaii, South Dakota and the Virgin Islands. There are now 32 states and two territories on the list.

Under the advisory, travelers are required to fill out a travel form upon arriving in Connecticut from any of the listed hotspot areas. After arriving in Connecticut, travelers are then required to self-quarantine for 14 days.

Last week, Connecticut broke into new territory by adding neighboring Rhode Island to the advisory list.
