Construction is underway on a walk-bike bridge over I-89 at Exit 14
The bridge would link Williston Road and University Mall
| What | Detail |
|---|---|
| Crosses | I-89 at Exit 14 |
| Connects | Williston Road and University Mall |
| Upkeep | The city, year-round |
If you walk Williston Road over I-89, you know the stretch: traffic barreling on and off the Exit 14 ramps and, with winter's short, dark days around the corner, less visibility. After decades of that, walkers and bikers can now see a fix taking shape just south of the overpass.
The South Burlington Walk-Bike Bridge got a groundbreaking ceremony before construction began. Vermont Business Magazine ran a copy of the Community News Service report, which says phase one is underway.
- Started: late July, after a groundbreaking ceremony
- Phase one: underway now
- Safety: nighttime illumination, among numerous features

Construction began in late July, and the city will maintain the bridge year-round once it's done.
