Connecting the City's Bicycle & Pedestrian Gaps
About the Penny for Paths Initiative - Committee to identify and prioritize bike and pedestrian infrastructure projects. During the last round of Capital Improvement Planning (CIP) and budgeting, projects falling onto the Bicycle & Pedestrian Committee project list also found their way onto a new Bike/Ped Improvement CIP list. This will assist the City in planning and budgeting for these projects over the course of the Penny for Paths lifecycle, and beyond. To date, some of these projects are now in the design and engineering phase, while others are pending supplemental funding (i.e.: grants). |
Active Penny for Paths Projects include those projects that are currently undergoing design and/or engineering.
Each project description will be updated as the projects move through design and into construction. If you have any
questions about these or other Penny for Paths related projects, please contact Ashley Parker, City Project
Manager, at: aparker@sburl.com.

The "Jug Handle" Sidewalk Project -
Project Location - This project is located within the Jug Handle between Spear Street and East Terrace, just East of the residential halls on the UVM Campus and just south of Route 2/Main Street. |
Project Overview - Existing infrastructure is unsafe for users, as it places pedestrians on a busy street. The project will involve the design and construction of a 5' wide concrete sidewalk connecting pedestrians more safely across the Jug Handle. It will include the installation of bollard lighting, narrowing of the ramp to East Terrace for traffic calming, alignment of crosswalks, movement of an existing catch basin, and the replacement of 5 trees. |
