Pearl Street is being reconfigured from Battery Street to George Street and from Winooski Avenue to Union Street to improve pedestrian safety, provide balanced options for people driving and biking, and to improve intersection access at Pearl Street / Battery Street. Work may be phased, with some improvements beginning fall 2017 and continuing into 2018.
Where did these changes orginate?
Over 2014-2015, a Pearl Street Planning Study evaluated options to improve downtown Pearl Street from a "complete streets" perspective. This plan focused on improvements that could be made quickly and within the existing curblines, understanding that the City was embarking on Great Streets Design Standards that would inform potential reconstruction of Pearl Street.
Some features are part of our quick-build program and will last from 1-5 years before permanant reconstruction. Do you have any questions, comments, or concerns? Please contact us here.
