South Burlington city councilor Meaghan Emery felt blindsided at an April 19 meeting, after her fellow councilors seemed to push through a vote regarding an Interstate 89 traffic study.
The motion on the table? Which traffic interchange to focus on for the Chittenden County Regional Planning Commissionâs I-89 2050 Study.
Councilors voted 3-2 to recommend Exit 12B for further consideration, despite what Emery characterized as a ârailroadingâ of the public input process, and against recommendations of four committees who also reviewed the data.
12B would widen Route 116 to four lanes, create a bridge with a sidewalk and multiuse path and add on-ramps at Tilley Drive and Hinesburg Road.
