The Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTrans) is providing weekly updates about the paving project in Brattleboro. The latest update provides information that was published on Aug. 1, 2025. Sign up for alerts here, or learn more about this project.
Crews are adding an overnight shift on Friday, Aug. 1 from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. They plan to pave on Vermont Route 9 (Western Avenue) west of Green Street and on U.S. Route 5 (Main Street) north of the downtown area. Additionally, a crew will adjust structures on U.S. 5 (Canal Street) west of downtown. Single-lane closures with alternating traffic controlled by flaggers will be in place.
Parking Impacts
Street-side parking will be unavailable on Western Avenue, High Street, Main Street, and Linden Street from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 4, through Saturday, Aug. 9.
Friday night work zones are being limited to certain areas so as not to interfere with downtown parking for events and businesses. Please pay attention to nightly message boards indicating parking restrictions. The contractor and Brattleboro DPW are working together to move these boards for locations of work each evening. There will not be a parking ban along the street unless work is being done that night. Please see the infographic for locations of work and parking restrictions.

Flaggers will be present to direct one-way alternating traffic through the work zones. Parking restrictions will be enforced during working hours.
Motorcyclists should watch for grooved and uneven surfaces and all motorists should be aware of raised utility structures in the travel lanes and shoulders.
