±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø We are the Future Thu, 21 May 2026 19:04:09 +0000 en-US hourly 1 /wp-content/uploads/2018/01/cropped-±¬ÁϳԹÏÍøTreeLogoFavicon-32x32.png ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø 32 32 ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø Main Street Revitalization /winooski-main-street-revitalization/ Thu, 21 May 2026 19:03:53 +0000 /?p=242238 The City of ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø is currently undergoing a major multi-year upgrade to Main Street (U.S. Route 2/7). The project stretches approximately 4,000 feet from the New England Central Railroad bridge up to the ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø-Colchester town line—right near the ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø.

What is changing?

The goal of the project is to safely reconfigure the road to accommodate everyone in our community. Key upgrades include:

  • Pedestrian & Bike Upgrades: Expanded sidewalks, newly added crosswalks, and dedicated bike lanes.

  • Safety & Aesthetics: Updated traffic signals, enhanced street lighting, and new landscaping.

  • Infrastructure Upgrades: Better stormwater management systems, upgraded water and sewer lines, and moving overhead power and communication lines safely underground.

Timeline & Traffic Impact

Construction originally began in the spring of 2024 and is on track for completion by Summer 2026 (with a final ribbon cutting planned for October 2026).

While construction is in its final phases, students, parents, and staff travelling to and from school should expect occasional lane shifts, shoulder closures, and minor daytime delays. However, Main Street remains fully open to traffic and local businesses are open!

Get Involved: Main Street Community Parade!

To celebrate our community and support local businesses during the final year of construction, the city is hosting a Main Street Community Parade on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at 12:00 PM. * Where: Conveniently for our community, the parade will start right here at the ±¬ÁϳԹÏÍø (60 Normand Street) and head down to Maple Street, followed by a community lunch. All families and students are welcome to attend or volunteer!

eBike Safety /ebike-safety/ Thu, 21 May 2026 18:40:33 +0000 /?p=242228 We have noticed an increase in students riding e-bikes to and from campus. While we love seeing our students use active transportation to commute to school responsibly, we need your help ensuring everyone stays safe.
First, a quick reminder regarding campus boundaries:Ìýe-bikes are strictly prohibited on or next to the athletic fieldsÌýat all times.
To keep our riders and pedestrians safe, please review these essential e-bike safety practices with your child:
  • Wear a helmet:ÌýIt must fit snugly and sit level just above the eyebrows.
  • Stay off sidewalks and fields:ÌýStick to designated bike lanes and roads, and always slow down near pedestrians, cars, turns, and wet surfaces.
  • Stay focused:ÌýAvoid looking at phones or wearing earbuds while riding.
  • Follow traffic laws:ÌýRide in the same direction as traffic and stop completely at all red lights and stop signs.
  • One rider only:ÌýE-bikes are not built to carry passengers safely.
  • Do the “ABC Check”:ÌýCheck theÌýAir,ÌýBrakes, andÌýChain before every ride.
Working together to ensure our students arrive and depart campus safely is a top priority for our school community. Thank you for your partnership and support.
