Public Meetings

Public Engagement Opportunities

The Burlington-Winooski Bridge Project Team is excited to announce that we will host an Open House in early December 2024. The Project Team will share updates on the intersection and bridge design, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, and provide more insight into what traffic might look like during construction. The Open House format will allow you to visit different tables with information on these topics, talk directly with the Project Team if you have questions, and view the information at your own pace.

There will also be an opportunity to provide your input on bridge aesthetics. A survey will be available for public input that shows different features and styles for lighting, traffic barriers, and pedestrian barriers. All the information presented at the Open House will be available on the project website, including the bridge aesthetic survey; however, we encourage everyone who is able to join us in person!

Check back here soon for more information, and make sure you're signed up for email updates to stay informed!

Visit Us at Local Events

We were excited to attend local events to share information about the project and meet members of the community. We look forward to attending more events soon.

COMMUNITY EVENTS ATTENDED in 2023
The project was a proud sponsor of Halloween in Winooski. We hope you saw our project banner surrrounded by all the pumpkins.

The project team also worked with Arts So Wonderful to help repaint the mural located on the Winooski side of the bridge.

Lastly, the project team attended the Burlington and Winooski Farmer's Markets. We had a wonderful time discussing the project and receiving feedback from everyone who stopped by the project tent.  

An outdoor information booth set up by the Vermont Agency of Transportation. The booth, covered by a white canopy tent, prominently displays a green banner with ‘VERMONT Agency of Transportation.’ On the table, various items like papers, maps, and informational materials are neatly organized. Behind the table, another banner highlights details about the Burlington Winooski Bridge Project. In the background, bleachers suggest a sports field or public event area.
