“Flash Mob” to Light Up Montpelier<br />

The Montpelier Complete Streets Group invites residents<br />

and visitors to light up the night as part of a “flash mob” on<br />

Wednesday, December 5th beginning at 6:30 pm. Fivehundred<br />

lighted arm bands were recently distributed at City<br />

Hall on Election Day to add to the five-hundred distributed on<br />

Town Meeting Day. With the short dark days upon us, now is<br />

the time to put them on so you can be seen and be safe.<br />

As further incentive, some lucky flash mob participants<br />

<br />

9 LANGDON STREET • 229-2777<br />

<br />

OPEN SEVEN DAYS!<br />

<br />

<br />

will be rewarded that evening with a small gift. Local businesses<br />

donated gift cards for the Complete Streets Group to<br />

give to pedestrians and bicyclists who are spotted wearing a<br />

lighted arm band, reflective gear, or headlamp. Over the next<br />

few weeks members of the Complete Streets Group will continue<br />

to hand out more incentives, so keep the lights turned on<br />

and stay safe.<br />

Adding more “flash” to the night and to the safety of<br />

pedestrians are the new flashing beacon lights that have been<br />

installed at the crosswalks on Elm Street at Pearl and Vine,<br />

Main Street at Barre Street, and on Bailey Avenue near<br />

Montpelier High School. Pedestrians are encouraged to use<br />

the flashing beacons to capture the attention of drivers when<br />

crossing at these intersections, reducing the risk of injuries.<br />

Always be sure to wait until vehicles come to a stop or<br />

acknowledge they have seen you and don’t assume they will<br />

stop just because of the flashing lights.<br />

Montpelier Complete Streets Group meets the 1st<br />

Wednesday of the month 5:30 -6:30 in City Hall. All meetings<br />

are open to the public and we welcome any feedback about<br />

pedestrian, bicycle and alternative transportation concerns.
