CCRPC, in partnership with Cities of Winooski and Burlington, and the Vermont Agency of Transportation, completed this study for the US RTs 2/7 bridge over the Winooski River.  The purpose of the project is to improve safety for all users while maintaining structural integrity and continuity of this vital link between the two cities.  Several issues and needs motivated the parties to look at this bridge, including: 1) Addressing the condition of this aging bridge structure as it is in the latter stage of its service life, 2) providing designated safe lanes for bicyclists, 3) continuing the necessary two lanes of traffic in both directions, and 4) improving safety conditions for pedestrians.

As of November, 2011, Bridges 2.40, 4.02 and 4.12 rate sufficient for freight car weights up to and including 315K without speed restriction on an infrequent basis. 263K and 286K freight traffic may be operated on a regular basis (including unit trains), provided trains with 286K cars not exceed 25 mph over bridge 4.12. 315K freight traffic may be operated on a regular basis (including unit trains), provided trains with 315K cars not exceed 10 mph over bridge 4.12, or 25 mph over bridge 4.02.

The purpose of this investigation was to conduct a structural assessment of the existing bridge, summarize its condition and determine appropriate repair options. On site assessment included sounding the soffit of the concrete arch as well as obtaining concrete cores for laboratory testing. Alternatives presented in this report are potential solutions for addressing concerns about the structural degradation of the existing arch bridge.

This project deals with the study of alternatives for correcting existing deficiencies on the Gentes Road (TH-3) Bridge (Bridge no. 20) over New England Central Railroad in Essex, Vermont. The bridge carries a town-maintained highway and is owned by the town.

This project deals with a study of alternatives for correcting existing deficiencies on the Bridge No. 7 over the LaPlatte River in Shelburne. The bridge carries a town-maintained highway and is owned by the town.

This project deals with the study of alternatives for correcting existing deficiencies on Bridge No. 10 over Huntington River in Huntington, Vermont. The bridge carries a town-maintained highway and is owned by the town. The purpose of the project is to improve safety and mobility for vehicular traffic, bicycles, and pedestrians along Main Road in the town of Huntington at the location of this bridge crossing.

This project deals with the study of alternatives for correcting existing deficiencies on the Main Road Bridge (South of the Moody Road intersection) over Huntington River in Huntington, Vermont. The bridge carries a town-maintained highway and is owned by the town. The purpose of the project is to improve safety and mobility for vehicular traffic, bicycles, and pedestrians along Main Road in the town of Huntington at the location of this bridge crossing.

The purpose of this Initial Project Definition Report (IPDR) is to develop and evaluate alternatives to address the ongoing structural deterioration and functional deficiencies of the Queen City Park Road Bridge over Vermont Railway in Burlington. This scoping process includes soliciting public input and seeking endorsement of a preferred alternative.
