Final report available here: https://www.oldspokeshome.com/one-mobility-audit The Old North End (ONE) is Burlington’s most economically, ethnically, and socially diverse community. The historically working-class neighborhood is a vibrant collective of arts, food, small business, and community-centered services, and is home to much of Burlington’s lower-income and migrant populations. This neighborhood mobility audit by the Old Spokes Home (bike shop and non-profit) sought to identify transportation investments that will improve pedestrian, bicycle, and transit access for traditionally underserved residents within the ONE to area jobs and essential services. A survey of those residents helped the project team to understand residents’ specific experiences, needs and barriers. Recommendations are made to enhance walking, biking, and transit connections to area jobs and essential services (e.g., shopping, educational centers, medical care facilities, etc.) at a neighborhood level, as well as suggestions on how to involve and engage traditionally underserved populations in planning projects.

The three contiguous communities of Cambridge, Underhill, and Jericho are seeking to develop a comprehensive “alternative” transportation system (i.e. one that does not rely heavily on single-occupancy auto) to serve their residents. This area has come to be called the “Tri-Town” area. The purpose of this study is to examine the range of possibilities for accomplishing this including various modes and services, organizational and administrative structures, and funding. It is intended that the results be relevant not only to the Tri-Town area but also for other rural portions of the GMT region.

This report details CarShare Vermont’s key findings and recommendations for effectively integrating electric vehicles (EVs) into shared fleets following a research-turned-pilot project. CCRPC funding supported research and planning, then CarShare Vermont self-funded a project to pilot our first EV with in-kind support from the Burlington Electric Department. The report provides more than 12 months of data about how the EV was used and by whom, its environmental impacts, and the financial and operational implications of converting to an electric fleet, as well as our recommendations for policies that will better support the integration of EVs into carsharing systems.

This Plan evaluates how proposed land development affects the transportation network in the project area to help inform future land use and transportation decisions.

The CCRPC and the City of Burlington partnered to identify options to improve connectivity for low-stress bicycling, improved pedestrian crossings, and stormwater management in the southwest section of the Old North End – one of Burlington’s densest and most diverse neighborhoods. The final report includes conceptual designs and conceptual cost estimates for the preferred alternatives connecting Battery Park, the Old North End Neighborhood Greenway, the Depot Street Neighborhood Greenway, and the Lakeview Terrace Neighborhood Greenway.

It’s not often that carsharing is seen as a potential solution for concerns about increasing housing cost burdens. Hidden vehicle and parking costs can contribute to an overall higher cost of living--housing and transportation. This report highlights the role that transportation and parking costs play in housing affordability and describes the role of CarShare VT in changes to Burlington’s development ordinances and new directions for the organization.

This is the Appendix for the 2020 South Burlington Pedestrian and Bicycle Feasibility Study - Phase 2 study that evaluated the feasibility of additional sidewalk and shared use paths at four (4) proposed study site locations: Spear Street from UVM George D. Aiken Forestry Sciences Laboratory to the Shelburne town line; Hinesburg Road from Williston Road to Kennedy Drive; Allen Road from Baycrest Drive to Shelburne Road, Harbor View Road from Shelburne Road to Baycrest Drive, and Baycrest Drive from Harbor View Road to Allen Road; and Fayette Drive from Queen City Park Road to Shelburne Road.

The CCRPC and the City of South Burlington initiated this scoping study to analyze and evaluate the feasibility of additional sidewalk and shared use paths at four (4) proposed study site locations: Spear Street from UVM George D. Aiken Forestry Sciences Laboratory to the Shelburne town line; Hinesburg Road from Williston Road to Kennedy Drive; Allen Road from Baycrest Drive to Shelburne Road, Harbor View Road from Shelburne; Road to Baycrest Drive, and Baycrest Drive from Harbor View Road to Allen Road; Fayette Drive from Queen City Park Road to Shelburne Road. This report analyzes and evaluates existing conditions, provides conceptual alternatives, and tabulates opinions of probable construction costs. It continues upon the previous efforts in the February 2017 report of the same name to improve and/or close the gaps of the South Burlington pedestrian and bicycle networks.

This study developed and identified a recommended alternative for the Richmond Road, North Road, and Texas Hill Road intersection that improves the safety and comfort of the traveling public and nearby residents of Hinesburg.
