Good news! VTrans approved our request to paint a crosswalk from the Carroll Road boardwalk to the Route 100 sidewalk. Crosswalk signs are coming soon while the paint will come in the spring. Projects like these are important to improve the safety of people walking and rolling in our downtowns. The crosswalk comes soon after the new Carroll Road boardwalk was constructed this past summer. A concrete “warning pad” was installed on the Carroll Road side of Route 100 to match the existing warning pad on the other side. These are required for a crosswalk to be painted.
Many thanks to our partners for making this a successful team effort, including the Town of Waitsfield, Mad River Valley Planning District, and everyone who sent in their comments.
