Circ-Williston EIS Newsletter is Published

The December 2009 of the newsletter is now available.

CIRC A/B Preferred Corridor  

The Federal Highway Administration in cooperation with the Vermont Agency of Transportation has concluded that the preferred alternative for The Circ-Williston Final Environmental Impact Statement can only be in the Circ A/B corridor. FHWA and VTrans are recommending the selection of a Circ A/B corridor alternative as the Army Corps of Engineers Least Environmentally Damaging Practicable Alternative in the Section 404 process.  The Circ A/B Corridor consists of the state-owned right-of-way traversing Williston and a small portion of Essex between I-89 and VT 289 that was purchased to construct a portion of the Chittenden County Circumferential Highway.

Below are links to various documents, including a bulleted summary of the relevant reasons why this determination was made.

  • CIRC A/B Preferred Corridor
