November 5, 7pm - Local Concerns Meeting - Hinesburg Town Office
Richmond Road Bike/Pedestrian Feasibility Study
A safe route for pedestrians and cyclists along Richmond Road is a priority in the Hinesburg Town Plan. This section of Richmond Road is Hinesburg’s highest population density area, with 286 homes on properties directly served by the corridor, including two mobile home parks with 121 homes. The western terminus connects to the village sidewalk system and CVU High School. Installing bike/ped improvements is complicated by a narrow road with difficult constraints (e.g., ledge, grade, geometry). With the help of the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commission, we’ve hired the Toole Design Group (TDG, transportation consultants) to assess options for bike/pedestrian improvements and associated costs.
Why a meeting? TDG has thoroughly assessed the corridor, and will give a short presentation on what they’ve learned. Before possible bike/ped options are explored, we want a reality check from community members – e.g., observations, ideas, concerns. That’s where you come in! Cider and apple pie will be served to help entice you.
Not a meeting person? Contact me with comments and observations. Email is great, as I can forward those comments directly to our project consultants. Closer to the meeting, I hope to have a webpage for the project on the Town website. I plan to post the consultant’s presentation to the Town webpage. Take a look, and see if there’s something not mentioned that we should be considering.
