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 purpose of this scoping study is to develop and evaluate alternatives for continuing improvements along the Pearl Street corridor in Essex Junction. The study area extends from the Post Office Square intersection to Five Corners.

2009 Review of relevant traffic signal warrants analyses for the subject intersection. The intersection is well below the traffic signal warrant thresholds. Therefore the existing signal could be removed following proper removal procedure and improving the corner sight distances.

Initially the intersection did not satisfy any signal warrants. Upon further review it was discovered the intersection would satisfy warrants under what is known as the 70% factor which is available at intersections with approach speeds in excess of 40 mph.

The Purpose of the Milton High School Access Improvements study was to identify existing deficiencies and concerns regarding High School access and recommend a solution that better serves the needs of the users.

The purpose of the study is to determine the corridor’s performance with a coordinated signal system. In addition, this study identifies opportunities and constraints for improving intersection and corridor performance. To evaluate performance a model was developed and calibrated through field observations.

The purpose of this project is to develop an implementable program for regular maintenance of Chittenden County’s 156 traffic signals.

The purpose of the U.S.Route 7 and Rebecca Lander Drive Intersection Upgrade study was to identify existing deficiencies and concerns regarding High School access and recommend a solution that better serves the needs of the users. This study was put on hold pending development of additional information and was updated in 2004.
