A scoping study for lanes along the route is underway thanks to a grant the town received from the state last year. The project initially came as a request to the Brattleboro Traffic Safety Committee from the Brattleboro Coalition of Active Transportation. “Route 9 has historically been focused on vehicle use like most of the roads in Vermont, but as more and more people walk or cycle back and forth downtown for work, school, errands or entertainment, a combination of pedestrian and bicycles becomes more important,” Christina Haskins of Dufresne Group said at a forum held remotely Wednesday to get public input as initial plans are put together.
