DATE: Thursday, 9/24/20
PROJECT TYPE: Roadway
PROJECT LOCATION: The intersection of Vermont Route 116, Shelburne Falls Road and CVU Road in the town of Hinesburg.
PROJECT SCOPE: Construction activities include road widening on VT Route 116, Shelburne Falls Road and CVU Road for the addition of new turn lanes and replacement of the existing traffic signal. Culverts on Route 116, Ballards Corner Road, Shelburne Falls Road and Pleasant View Lane will be replaced as part of the project.
Planned Construction Activities:
The contractor has moved the traffic signal heads and traffic will be placed on the newly widened sections of Route 116 both north and south of the intersection this afternoon. Motorists are advised to use caution as there will be a lane-shift in place as you move through the work zone.
Next week excavation will begin on the northeast side of Route 116 (behind the barrier). The roadway will be excavated in order to replace the second half of the culvert in this location. This work will take place all week long.
The contractor will be replacing the culvert located on Ballard's Corner Rd. next week. All businesses along Ballard's Corner Road will be accessible.
Traffic Impacts:
The traveling public should expect alternating one-way traffic at the intersection between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. throughout the week of 9/28/20. Please expect delays and add extra time to your travel plans.
As part of Governor Scott’s “Work Smart, Stay Safe” order, all construction crews are currently subject to certain safety restrictions.
