The Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC) and the City of South Burlington retained Hoyle, Tanner & Associates, Inc. (Hoyle Tanner) to prepare this crosswalk assessment to evaluate potential crosswalks at four locations in South Burlington. The four crosswalk locations include: Intersection of Songbird Road and Dorset Street; Intersection of Nicklaus Circle and Dorset Street; Intersection of Hinesburg Road and Dubois Drive; Intersection of Pheasant Way and Spear Street.

The safety review presented in this report includes two roadways in Underhill, VT being considered as designated bicycle routes. These roadways are the entire length of Irish Settlement Road and a segment of Pleasant Valley Road. These two roads serve as potential bicycle route connections between Underhill Center and Vermont Route 15 in Cambridge, VT, a popular cycling route in the state.

Lake Street in Burlington is a shared use street that connects the City core to the northern waterfront. There are two mid-block pedestrian crossings on this segment. The road is landscaped with street trees and granite blocks. Stormwater runoff sheet flows across the road from east to west. Runoff from nearby properties drains over Lake Street at the driveway intersections. Most of the stormwater sheet flows into small swales or ponds in the nearest low spot. The City with funding from the CCRPC studied possible pedestrian, streetscape and stormwater improvements for Lake Street in the project area.
