  • 1 Main Street Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    The five corners lights need to be reprogramed to be pedestrian accommodating. Currently a pedestrian presses the crosswalk button and waits, like a vehicle, for the lights to make the cycle around the five corners then all five lights allow the walker to go but just long enough to get across one section. It seems to be a deterrent to walking downtown. I would think the lights could be reprogrammed to accommodate walkers and still allow steady traffic flow.
  • Pearl Street Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    There is a section of Pearl Street that has a bike lane, it is well marked and delineates the space for bike-only use. This lane stops abruptly and doesn't continue in either direction for biker's safe travel. This lane should start at the five corners and continue to the bike lane on Fort Ethan Allen. It is confusing and half-considered to only have it for a small section of the main drag of town, cars and bikers alike are confused by it.
  • Franklin Street And Park Street Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)

    Franklin Street has exploded in growth and this intersection is challenging as well as dangerous.
    Franklin Street does not line up with Iroquois. The street light holds on Franklin while it turns green for Iroquois. There is constant confusion as drivers on Iroquois become frustrated with those on Franklin, thinking they are waiting and not going (the light is not yet green.)

    Making a left onto Franklin is challenging as drivers turning left onto Iroquois, coming from the opposite direction, cannot safely do so because cars illegally cut around the car heading left onto Iroquois.

    As my teenage boys have begun driving, there is no safe way to explain to them how to make these choices.

    Also, all of Franklin Street and internal other roads use the Park Place Bar entrance as an exit, thus creating more danger.

  • North Street & Central Street Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    At North & Central. Motorists cannot see cyclists coming down Central, and cyclists can't see motorists coming up North without cyclists putting themselves almost into the intersection. Vegetation on private property at the corner needs to be trimmed back for safety of our children!
  • Bike lane Archived
    221 Pearl Street Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    There are nice bike lanes on both sides of Pearl St. until you get to the West St. intersection then there are no lanes and it becomes very dangerous for bikers.
  • 181 Pearl Street (Pearl Street Park) Essex Junction, VT - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    The snow has melted in Pearl Street Park, but unfortunately litter remains. This trash was hidden under the snow, but it has been here for over a year and has been an eyesore on my daily walks. It trails down the hillside and now there is a large purple contraption floating in the pond. Please help!
  • Address Unavailable - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    Can something be done about the bushes blocking the sidewalk at the top of Brickyard Rd? it's impossible to stay on the sidewalk if you're walking there.
  • 56 South Street Essex, Vermont - Essex Junction (without Essex)
    One of my neighbors located at the corner of S. St and S. St Lane (at the stop sign) owns a 'handyman' business and frequently leaves garbage such as broken toilets, sinks, old mattresses (currently there), broken appliances and other rubbish on the side of the road and leaning against the stop sign. This attracts unwanted critters (rats, skunks, etc) to the area, could be a hazard for children/pets or anyone walking, and sets a negative tone for the entire neighborhood. This has gone on for so long, that it could also impact real estate values nearby. Is it possible for the town to intervene?
