Snow Plowing Archived298 S Winooski Ave Burlington, VT, 05401, USA - Burlington ElectricNorthbound bike lane is reduced to foot-wide section. Bikes are forced to drive on double yellow against traffic.
Note: Sending a sidewalk plow down the bike lane at this stage is way too late and will achieve very little, because of the amount of snow and ice. This needs a big plow and should have been addressed during the parking ban(s). -
Dangerous crosswalk Archived107 Us-7 Burlington, VT 05401, USA - Burlington ElectricThere is a crosswalk, but pedestrians never seem to have the right-of-way and there isn't an electric walk signal. This creates a very dangerous situation as you basically always have to jaywalk across the crosswalk. Please give a gap between greenlights so that pedestrians can cross and give us a signal.

Trucks parked on Bike path/sidewalk Archived389 Riverside Avenue Burlington, Vermont - Burlington ElectricThere is almost always a truck parked on the sidewalk/bike path in front of Hal's Hitches and Welding. It's dangerous and inconvenient, as it requires cyclists to enter the street where there is no marked bike lane.

Street Pavement Condition ArchivedPlattsburgh Avenue Burlington, Vermont - Burlington ElectricSeveral complaints were filed on street conditions being horrible near the North Avenue Plattsburgh Avenue area specifically Plattsburgh Ave. last summer. DPW director informed taxpayers that paving process for the area had been moved to top priority and would be taking place September late fall. This did not happen and now the area is near totally a rock zone in the East bound lane of Plattsburgh Avenue leading to vehicles driving in the wrong lane creating another safety issue. About the only way to use Plattsburgh Ave. is now to take helicopter from North Ave. to corner of belt line.DPW director dropped the ball on this one once again.

They were serving food and liquor with no security. thank you to BPD for shutting it down.
