Vermont H0834 aims to enhance traffic calming measures, pedestrian and bicycle safety, and local speed limits in village centers.

Vermont H0834 establishes traffic calming measures for village centers, focusing on pedestrian and bicycle safety. It allows municipalities to set speed limits under 25 mph in downtown centers, village centers, and thickly settled districts. The bill also mandates the adoption of the U.S. Department of Transportation's Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and a Vermont State supplement. It prohibits parking within 20 feet of crosswalks and allows municipalities to permit vehicle unloading or bicycle/scooter parking within certain distances of crosswalks.
