The Town of Huntington requested a traffic speed study for Camels Hump Road from Main Road to the parking area at the end of road. In order for a Legislative Body to determine a safe and reasonable speed on town highways, a traffic engineering investigation (speed study) is required by Vermont Statutes Annotated Title 23, § 1007. This document provides supporting findings that were used to develop recommendations for setting a speed limit for Camels Hump Road.

This study evaluated the existing traffic conditions and stop controlled intersections of Blair Park and Paul Street, and Zephyr Road and Day Lane to determine appropriate STOP sign configuration with recent changes in land use and traffic conditions.

This study evaluated transportation conditions along North Avenue between North Street and Plattsburgh Avenue in Burlington from a “Complete Streets” perspective, and developed multimodal transportation improvements that, when implemented, will provide for safe, inviting, and convenient travel for all users of all ages and abilities—including motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, and public transportation riders. The final corridor plan identifies improvements that could be implemented in the near-term for relatively low cost, as well as potentially longer-term improvements involving larger-scale physical changes to the North Avenue corridor.

The goal of the VT 15 Corridor Study is to develop a comprehensive multi-modal transportation improvement plan (Plan) for the VT 15 corridor from Main Street (“Circulator”) in Winooski through the towns of Colchester and Essex and the Village of Essex Junction, to the border of Essex and Jericho. The Susie Wilson Corridor from VT 15 to VT 2A was also addressed. The Plan presents a long-term vision and goals for the corridor and recommends a number of short, medium and long-term transportation and land use strategies to achieve the vision over time. Transportation strategies developed for the study area address highway, pedestrian, bicycle and public transit modes. Land use, access management and corridor aesthetic strategies were also developed that support the long term vision of the VT 15 corridor. This Plan builds on the numerous planning efforts, development programs and projects that have been initiated over the last several years along the VT 15 Corridor by state, regional and local entities. This final report includes all interim reports prepared throughout this study to: assess the current and future land use and transportation conditions in the study area; develop a vision and goals for the study corridors; and articulate strategies to achieve the vision through a detailed implementation plan.

This manual encompasses the joint effort of the towns of Jericho and Essex to assess each town’s scenic roadscapes and find ways to protect world-class views through individual and joint regulatory and non-regulatory means.

The Chittenden County Metropolitan Planning Organization contracted with National Research Center, Inc. to conduct a region wide transportation survey. The 2006 Chittenden County Transportation Survey provided residents and employees working in the County the opportunity to rate the quality of life as it relates to transportation, as well as service delivery and their satisfaction with travel and public transportation in the County. The survey also permitted residents to share their priorities for transportation planning and resource allocation. This is the second iteration of the Chittenden County Transportation Survey since the baseline study was conducted in 2000.

The Town of Essex desired to identify the issues associated with and possible options for a non-motorized, multi-use pedestrian crossing and associated trail to connect residential neighborhoods with Essex Middle School via a crossing of Route 289.

The Chittenden County Metropolitan Planning Organization (CCMPO) contracted with Resource Systems Group to conduct the Chittenden County Year 2000 Transportation Survey. The primary objectives of the survey were to measure satisfaction with the county’s transportation system among those who live and work in the county and to gather public opinion on how future transportation dollars should be spent. By asking respondents their opinion on a wide range of transportation issues including road maintenance, sidewalk quality, public transportation, and bike paths, the CCMPO is better able to understand which areas the general public feels require the most attention. The results of the survey will be used to aid in the formulation of the county’s 2025 Metropolitan Transportation Plan.
