“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 />
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.
