Bennington Roundabout Project
The project focuses on improvements to the intersections of VT 67A at Silk Road and Matteson Road (Rice Lane) and VT 67A at College Drive (the entrance to Bennington College). In addition, the project extends approximately 300 feet along VT 67A (easterly), 400 feet along VT 67A (westerly), 300 feet along Silk Road, 225 feet along Matteson (Rice Lane), and 100 feet on College Drive.
PROJECTED COMPLETION: Summer 2026
VTrans is enhancing safety, mobility, and access for all users by improving the intersections of VT Route 67A at Silk Road and Matteson Road (Rice Lane), as well as VT 67A at College Drive (the entrance to Bennington College). The centerpiece of
this project is the construction of a single-lane, peanut-shaped roundabout at these intersections. Additional upgrades will include new pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, improved drainage, landscaping, street lighting, and other roadway enhancements.
Construction is scheduled to occur from Spring 2025 to Summer 2026, primarily on weekdays during daytime hours. Traffic impacts are expected to
include alternating one-way traffic, short-term road closures, and detours on Silk Road, Matteson Road, and College Drive.
Ahead of construction in Spring 2025, the project team will release an update with detailed information about the construction phases, schedule,
and expected traffic impacts. Once construction begins, the team will provide weekly updates and supplemental traffic alerts to keep the public informed about progress and upcoming activities.
We will post updates here when we receive them.
