Project Schedule: Fall 2024 – Winter 2027
Consultant: Vanasse Hangen Brustinlin, Inc (VHB)

The purpose of this project is to ameliorate road safety concerns for Bangor-area pedestrians, cyclists, and motorists through the creation of an SS4A Action Plan and demonstration projects focused on traffic calming design in appropriate locations.

Phase 1 of this project will include the development of eleven safety plans, one for each BACTS member community. 

Phase 2 of this project will begin when Phase 1 is nearly completed. Phase 2 will carry forward the priority projects list, created in Phase 1, and begin producing engineering level design documents for the demonstration projects, including cost estimates and relevant NEPA documentation.

• • The demonstration projects are anticipated to be in the field between July 1st and approximately August 30th in 2026 and 2027.
