by C.B. Hall, Vermont Business Magazine While the Agency of Transportation s list of highway projects this year is prodigious (see below), the agency does a lot more than replace worn pavement and fix bridges on Vermont s state, federal and interstate roadways.
AOT and its many partners also reconfigure city streets, maintain state-owned rail corridors, develop bicycle-pedestrian trails, build sidewalks, and perform an abundance of other infrastructure chores.
These other projects, often managed by towns and cities, tend to be more interesting than the usual routine of installing traffic lights and paving over potholes. This year, for example, AOT s work list will include reinforcing the stone underpinnings of the covered bridge that connects Windsor with Cornish, New Hampshire.

“Now in front of the pearly gates, Holy Cannoli sits and waits. What brought its ruin no one knows. Must have been the pistachios,” reads the tombstone for the limited batch Ben & Jerry’s flavor, “Holy Cannoli.”
Ben & Jerry’s fans have experienced ice cream flavors leave their lives just as quickly as they came in.
Whether it be the long-forgotten Dastardly Mash or the fan-favorite Oatmeal Cookie Chunk, some Ben & Jerry s flavors have retired in what is known as the Flavor Graveyard.
