Southern Connector / Champlain Parkway ~ Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement

33.9 kB
Year:
2009
Theme:
New Capacity, Transportation
Description:
This 2009 Final Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement (FSEIS) focuses on proposed changes for portions of the previously approved Burlington Southern Connector/Champlain Parkway Project. The approved project involves the construction of approximately 2.3 miles of highway known as the Southern Connector/Champlain Parkway, commencing at the interchange of I-189 with Shelburne Street (U.S. Route 7), and extending westerly and northerly to the City Center District (CCD) within the City of Burlington, Chittenden County, Vermont. Previously, a Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) (FHWA-VT-EIS-77-02-F) was completed in 1979, with the approval of a Selected Alternative by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). One section (the C-1 Section, which is approximately 0.6 miles in length) of the 1979 Selected Alternative has been constructed, but has never been opened to vehicular traffic as its intended function.

Environmental Assessment for Shelburne Road Corridor Rail Improvement Solution

10.5 MB
Year:
1996
Theme:
Rail, Transportation, Western Corridor
Description:
The Vermont Agency of Transportation engaged consultants to consider the feasibility of establishing passenger railroad services on the existing railroad rights-of-way between Charlotte and Burlington, Vermont and to develop the federally required Environmental Assessment. The passenger rail would be constructed to improve mobility in the corridor, alleviate growing traffic demands, and relieve congestion associated with the proposed construction activities on US Route 7, projected to last two years. This document outlines environmental consequences of the proposed project, passenger rail, and compares it to environmental consequences of the No-Build Alternative. The portion of Chittenden County that is the focus of this Environmental Assessment extends from Ferry Road in Charlotte to Main Street in Burlington and from Lake Champlain to the Hinesburg town line, Vermont Route 116, and Dorset Street. The study area is centered on U.S. Route 7, Shelburne Road, and is commonly referred to as the Shelburne Road Corridor. The Corridor includes the portions of Chittenden County encompassed by the towns of Charlotte, Shelburne, South Burlington and Burlington.
