This map presents initiatives built and implemented around Vermont since 2019 that are making it easier for residents to get around their communities without a car.

This review focused on changes to infrastructure of all sizes and scopes, from installation of rectangular rapid flashing beacons that improve pedestrian crossing safety, to construction of cross-community multi-use paths. There are also projects that help Vermonters use alternatives to single-occupancy vehicles, like e-bike libraries, expanded transit centers, and micro-transit systems.

Some of these projects started at the state level, others were initiated by a handful of community members. This survey likely does not capture every change to Vermont infrastructure that supports bikes and pedestrians since 2019. However, it does provide a sample of the types of projects that have been realized across Vermont communities. Explore the map to see details, funding sources, and agencies and groups involved with each specific project.

Read more on their full webpage, including an interactive map with details on each project, and case studies in Milton, South Burlington, Waitsfield, and along the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail.
