The Town of Colchester requested CCRPC staff expertise in evaluating congestion and examining alternatives for improvement at the Bayside Park signalized intersection. Alternatives focused on congestion reduction while also attempting to increase land-use connectivity between Bayside Park and Bayside Beach

CCRPC staff worked with Town staff to evaluate multiple transportation alternatives in order to improve capacity at the Bayside Park intersection. Alternatives 3B and 4B were the alternatives recommended for land use analysis. The purpose of the land use analysis was to determine the amount of development (in terms of new dwelling units and commercial floor area) that could occur given the increased capacity and additional trips that could be accommodated through the Bayside Park intersection as a result of the transportation improvements. This memo also estimates tax revenue associated with the additional development for Alternative 3B.

The Exit 17 Scoping Study was initiated in the spring of 2013 through its inclusion in the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission’s (CCRPC) Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP). The focus of this scoping study was to develop and evaluate build alternatives for relieving congestion, increasing safety, and improving bicycle conditions at the I-89 Exit 17 interchange and adjacent intersection of US 2 and US 7—locally known as Chimney Corners—near the Colchester/Milton town line in Chittenden County, Vermont.

The Colchester-Essex Network Transportation Study was undertaken to evaluate the impact of partial Circ construction (segments C-F from VT117 to VT2A) on east-west travel along VT2A and Severance Road/Kellogg Road in Colchester and Essex and the impact of not constructing the remaining Circ segment. The study  evaluated the VT2A, Severance/Kellogg Road and Susie Wilson Road corridors.
