Consultation has concluded, but we are still actively adding information to this page.

The City of South Burlington received a federal grant to design and construct the East-West Crossing Project, a walk bike bridge over I-89, to provide a safer and more comfortable crossing of I-89. The South Burlington Walk Bike Bridge Connections project will examine the new bridge connections to the neighborhoods and businesses on both sides and become an integral part of the City’s transportation network.

Completed - Phase A Scoping

Scoping for the project was completed in collaboration with the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission through a contract with Stantec. This phase took several years. It began with research examining the project area, including conditions on the ground, the environment and communities on the west and east sides of I-89 at Exit 14, City Center, the Burlington Hill District, in collaboration with the residents, businesses, property owners, and other stakeholders. As a result of this process, Alternative 3, which offers a connection over I-89 at the southernmost part of the Exit 14 interchange, was accepted by the City Council as the Preferred Alignment in May of 2018.
To better position the project for design and construction funding, the City, with assistance from the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission (CCRPC), undertook a supplemental study of specific environmental characteristics of the preferred alternative - Final Report for Phase II. This study provided the background for future environmental permitting.

This phase ended with a final design concept recommendation approval by the City Council and included:
June 16 Workshop 1 - Design Ideas
August 31 Workshop 2 - Concepts for Review
October 13 Workshop 3 - Draft Final Concept
