Take the Public Survey!

Do you live, work or travel through Northern Addison County?  The Vergennes PEL Study team wants to hear from you!

Please complete a brief survey to share your insight on area needs and potential routes to reduce the impacts of truck traffic on VT Route 22A in Downtown Vergennes.  Transportation solutions being evaluated at this time include new roadways, improvements to existing roadways as well as the option that traffic flows do not change.  Potentially affected municipalities include Ferrisburgh, Vergennes, Waltham, Weybridge, Panton, Addison, and New Haven.  Learn more: https://vergennespel.com/survey/
