Construction Update
U.S. Route 7 and East Allen St.
DATE: Friday, 7/8/22

TRAFFIC IMPACT:

One-way alternating traffic will be required in the vicinity of nighttime operations.

Please use caution and reduce speed when driving through the construction zone. Structures will remain raised until the wearing course of asphalt has been paved.

CONSTRUCTION ACTIVITIES:

Work on the traffic island near Dion Street is scheduled for completion mid-week next week.
Work on the island near Manseau Street will continue next week. Please note that when traveling east on Route 15 (toward the interstate), the left hand turn onto Manseau Street has been eliminated in order to accommodate the increased size of the new pedestrian island at this location. The size of the pedestrian island is being changed in order to improve safety for pedestrians and the traveling public. Please observe all signage at this location, and proceed with caution.

Removal of the concrete slabs on West Allen Street (near Four Quarters) has been completed. Removal of slabs along 7N will continue next week. Please use caution when driving over unpaved surfaces.


On the abutting Burlington roadway project, paving will begin along Riverside Ave. next week, beginning at the intersection with N. Willard Street (Community Health Center), and progress toward the Winooski bridge.

Work on this contract will be performed at night. Typical nighttime work hours are 7:00 p.m.-6:00 a.m. Sunday through Thursday night. It should be noted, however, that work may be performed at times on Friday nights.
LOCATION:  This project begins on US-7/US-2 (Colchester Ave) at the Winooski/Burlington Town Line and continues northerly along US-7/US-2 (Main Street) to the Winooski/Colchester Town Line. The project also begins at the Winooski Circulator on VT-15 (East Allen Street) and extends easterly along VT-15 (East Allen Street) to the Winooski/Colchester Town Line at the Class 1 Town Highway limit.
