This supplemental scoping memo builds upon the 2016 Huntington Lower Village Bicycle and Pedestrian Scoping Study conducted by DuBois & King. The prior study identified several alternatives to address the safety challenges in Huntington's Lower Village but did not result in a preferred alternative that could be moved forward. This supplemental scoping effort was initiated in 2019, was disrupted by the global pandemic in 2020, and was completed in June 2023 when the Huntington Selectboard endorsed a preferred alternative for improvements. This memo summarizes the supplemental scoping effort.

The purpose of the Winooski's Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II transition plan is to identify barriers and deficiencies that limit accessibility and develop an implementation plan to upgrade all curb ramps and City maintained pedestrian signals to meet ADA standards to provide safe access and use of these facilities by individuals with disabilities.  

The Town of Williston obtained transportation planning assistance from the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) to develop a conceptual site design for a proposed multi-modal hub for Taft Corners. Stantec Consulting Services Inc. was retained by the CCRPC to identify multi-modal hub needs and desired improvements, evaluate existing conditions, develop the concept design, and summarize the efforts in this report.

South Burlington, through the CCRPC's UPWP, sought the support of WSP to provide technical services for exploring lighting improvements to better serve the needs of bicyclists and pedestrians using the separated, 1.5-mile, shared-use path that runs parallel to the west bound lanes of Kennedy Drive between Dorset Street and Williston Road.

This study evaluates short-, mid-, and long-term options for rehabilitation or replacement of Town Highway Bridge #26 on Leavensworth Road (TH #8) in Hinesburg, Vermont.

This study evaluates short-, mid-, and long-term options for rehabilitation or replacement of Town Highway Bridge #9 on Hollow Road (TH #5) in Hinesburg, Vermont.

This stormwater and watershed assessment took place from July 2022 to June 2023 to study Allen Brook watershed’s current water quality conditions within the Town of Milton and to investigate where stormwater Best Management Practices (BMPs) can be prioritized to manage runoff from developed lands within the watershed. Representatives of Watershed Consulting met with representatives from the VT DEC, CCRPC, and the Town of Milton to discuss the timeline and goals of this assessment in July 2022. From discussion with key stakeholders, it is known that over the past fifteen years, numerous water quality, fluvial erosion, and biological community assessments have been conducted in this watershed to assess the health of Allen Brook. From these assessments, it is known that Allen Brook is at risk of impairment when measured by its chemical and biological health. This study builds off of a variety of previous assessments in order to understand the source of pollutants, such as nutrients, chloride, and sediment, that have contributed to the impairment of Allen Brook. This assessment successfully used these findings to target stormwater BMPs in key areas of concern that will effectively treat stormwater runoff before it discharges to Allen Brook and ultimately Malletts Bay.

In cooperation with the Town of Essex, the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) contracted Stantec Consulting Services, Inc. (Stantec) to review existing transportation infrastructure and conceptualize future improvements and roadside enhancements along Vermont Route 15 (VT 15) within the Town. Specifically, the priority segment for this review is VT 15 between the Vermont Route 289 (VT 289) interchange in the Essex Town Center and the intersection of VT 15 and Vermont Route 128 (VT 128).

The study evaluated stormwater drainage concerns within the Town Common area of Westford and existing storm drain under VT Route 128 that drains stormwater from the Village Common area to the Browns River.  The area at the existing outlet pipe is eroded and requires relocation due to a redevelopment project on the 1705 Rte 128 property.  This study developed conceptual plans for relocation of the storm drain under Route 128 and possible outlet treatments and stormwater best management practices for improving drainage in the Village Common area.
