Hardwick, Vermont – The Town of Hardwick invites community members to attend a Local Concerns Meeting on Wednesday, August 13, 2025 at 6:00 PM to provide input on pedestrian and traffic safety improvements along Mill Street and Main Street in downtown Hardwick. The meeting will be held in the Parker Ladd Community Room in the Jeudevine Memorial Library and will also be accessible remotely. Virtual access details will be posted at www.hardwickvt.gov.

This meeting marks the start of a scoping and feasibility study to evaluate sidewalk conditions, crosswalk visibility, and overall traffic patterns in one of Hardwick’s most active areas. The Town is working with engineering and planning consultants from VHB to assess existing conditions and identify opportunities to enhance safety and access for pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and other users.

This effort builds upon five years of work by the Hardwick Planning Commission to support improved downtown walkability and traffic flow. Input from residents, businesses, and daily users of the corridor will help guide future planning and investment decisions.
