This study summarizes and updates the 2008 Market Study for Burlington, compares the findings with CarShare VT utilization data, examines the 2012 CarShare VT Member Survey, and applies this information to assess the feasibility of locating a car-share pod in Montpelier, Essex Junction and Williston.

This project investigated the feasibility of using “Green Streets” stormwater retrofits to alleviate or reduce surface stormwater ponding in the Lamplite Acres neighborhood in Williston. Flooding on the roads is common and creates slippery and potentially dangerous roadway conditions. Green Street improvements considered in this study include infiltration trenches, streetside rain gardens, stormwater curb extensions, streetside rain gardens, and permeable surfaces.

Vermont Route 116 in Starksboro and Hinesburg is slated for re-paving by the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) in 2013. This pilot project, led by the Addison and Chittenden County Regional Planning Commissions, injects aquatic organism passage (AOP) assessment and design into the planned culvert replacements on Vermont 116. The primary objective of this project is to identify structures where subtle and inexpensive design changes such as small increases to pipe size or re-setting of the culvert can improve fish passage so that these changes can be readily incorporated into planned culvert replacements. The ultimate goal of this work is to incorporate fish passage improvements into regular paving operations around the state.
