The I-89 Exit 14 Scoping Study evaluated improvements to the Exit 14 interchange area in South Burlington. The interchange area includes four signalized intersections along US 2 Williston Road between Staples Plaza to the west and Dorset Street to the east. The study builds on the preliminary interchange evaluation conducted as part of the I-89 2050 Study. The purpose of the scoping study was to refine previously identified alternatives; investigate other options to address safety, connectivity, and other multimodal issues in the study area; and to engage stakeholders and the public in a process to identify locally preferred alternatives for future improvements.

The Town of Milton’s Active Transportation Plan (ATP) is a comprehensive plan detailing the vision, goals, and strategic recommendations designed to advance active transportation across Milton. The vision and goals helped to establish a framework for reviewing and integrating previously identified projects and initiatives with newly defined projects and initiatives to recommend and prioritize for implementation within this plan. The overarching goal of the ATP is to create a blueprint for establishing, expanding, and enhancing active transportation in Milton.

CCRPC has developed this Safety Action Plan to advance roadway safety across Chittenden County through a data-driven evaluation of crash patterns, transportation conditions, and opportunities for improvements.  This Action plan was prepared following the Vision Zero principles and the Safe System Approach with the member municipalities and regional partners input and feedback.

The VT 127 Shared Use Path Scoping Study explores opportunities to create a new multimodal connection between North Avenue and the existing VT 127 Shared Use Path in Burlington, VT. The project team developed several alternatives for this connection, guided by ongoing input from the public and key stakeholder groups. Each alternative was evaluated for its alignment with the project’s Purpose and Needs Statement, its potential impacts on natural, cultural, and historic resources, its consistency with regional planning efforts, and its estimated implementation costs. In addition to scoping the new connection, the study also includes two technical memos summarizing a Safety Assessment of the path as it relates to roadway departure crashes from VT 127, and a Path Widening Feasibility Assessment. These recommendations reflect both technical analysis and community priorities for this crucial active transportation facility.

The goal of this study was to assess the feasibility of replacing the existing rail bridge over the Barge Canal at the Burlington Rail Yard with a wider structure to accommodate additional rail sidings to improve the operations and efficiency of the yard. The study used existing data, plans, and other information to develop bridge concepts, evaluate benefits and impacts including risks to the Superfund Site, and develop planning level cost estimates.

The US 7 - Lower Webster Road to the Village Shared Use Path Scoping Study identifies and evaluates opportunities for improving the safety and mobility of pedestrians and bicyclists along the US 7 corridor between Lower Webster Road and Harbor Road in the Town of Shelburne. The improvements focus on three key areas – the intersection of Lower Webster Road with US 7, the crossing over the LaPlatte River, and the US 7 corridor from the LaPlatte River to the intersection of US 7 and Falls Road / Harbor Road.

The PlanBTV Safety Action Plan was built on the previous 2017 PlanBTV Walk Bike plan reinvigorating the City of Burlington's commitment to safer streets by pledging action in a Safe Systems Approach and  Vision Zero philosophy marching towards eliminating transportation related deaths and serious injuries for all road users.  The primary goal of the Safety Action Plan is to identify strategies, countermeasures, and actions that align with the State's "Toward Zero Deaths" ethos, particularly for pedestrians and bicyclists.

The Battery Street Scoping Study was conducted by VHB and the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) in coordination with the City of Burlington Department of Public Works (City). The primary objective of the study was to identify and prioritize improvements along the Battery Street corridor to better and more safely accommodate all roadway users. Key goals included, improving safety and accessibility for all users and strengthening connections to adjacent parks and businesses. To achieve these goals, the project team conducted a thorough review of existing conditions, solicited and incorporated public and stakeholder input, performed a comprehensive alternatives analysis, and ultimately developed a preferred concept plan.
