The US 2/7 corridor in the vicinity of the I-89 Exit 16 interchange in Colchester has grown to become a key arterial that connects Burlington and Winooski to points north, which burdens the corridor with significant commuting pressures. The objective of this study was to develop a plan for future transportation system improvements based on reasonable and likely growth scenarios. A secondary objective was to initiate discussion with VTrans and Act 250 to affect changes in policy requirements and development review processes regarding transportation impacts in congested areas.

The purpose of the Jericho Elementary Pedestrian Circulation Study site improvements is to address bicycle and pedestrian safety issues, to enhance the walking and bicycling environment to encourage those modes, and to circulate all modes of traffic efficiently.

The Route 15 Corridor is the stretch of land 8 miles long and several miles wide between Essex Junction and Burlington that runs along Route 15 in Chittenden County. In this historic area are Fanny Allen Hospital, now part of the Fletcher Allen Health Care System, St. Michaels College, and the picturesque Fort Ethan Allen (now a vibrant mixed-use area with housing and commercial development), The Champlain Valley Fairgrounds, Camp Johnson, Vermonts richest farmlands in the Intervale, and the protected land of the Winooski Valley Park District. At either end, the corridor connects two major economic centers, the IBM Essex Junction facility and the City of Burlington. The following corridorwide and local reports delve into the many aspects of the corridor future, from rail implementation, TOD, Market, and Alternatives analysis, Modelling, et al.

This study is a joint effort of the Town of Westford, CCMPO, the Town Center Committee, and local residents to examine the feasibility and potential impacts associated with the construction of a new sidewalk along VT 128 in Westford village. The sidewalk would connect the library and the Red Brick Meeting House. This pedestrian connection would serve as appropriate infrastructure to support Goal #4 of the Town Plan, which encourages the Town Center Area to develop as the Town growth center. Furthermore, the sidewalk serves the Town Plan in its effort to make pedestrian access to the buildings surrounding the Town Common safer and easier. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of constructing a new sidewalk in Westford village and to provide the Town with the documentation necessary to pursue final design and construction funding through applicable federal, VTrans, and CCMPO funding sources. This study builds on 2004 and 2006 studies by T.J. Boyle and Associates.

The purpose of this project is to compare the results of field-adjusted optimized signal timing plans with previous plans during AM, PM and Saturday peak periods at twelve intersections along Williston Road and Dorset Street in South Burlington.   The study also provides comparison of performance measures such as average delays, queue lengths and emission impacts from both plans.  A list of short, mid and long-term capital improvement projects is recommended in the study including signal equipment upgrades. 

The Cliff Street Mobility Study is a joint effort study by the City and the Chittenden County Metropolitan Planning Organization (CCMPO), and the local residents to examine a number of potential improvements that would improve pedestrian access and calm traffic. The purpose of this planning and feasibility study is to develop a preferred set of strategies and cost effective mobility improvements that both maintains safe traffic flow through the study area and also enhances the accessibility of services and community resources for residents on foot or on bicycle.
