Burlington’s Long-Awaited Parkway Opens | Burlington News

After 58 years of delays, Burlington’s long-awaited Champlain Parkway finally opened — a two-lane road with a bike path, connecting I-89 to the city’s South End. Originally envisioned as a four-lane highway, this modern version reflects shifting priorities, funded mostly by the federal government with just 2% from the city. The project, shaped by multiple mayors including Bernie Sanders, symbolizes persistence and progress — kicking off with a 1965 Mustang leading a parade of electric cars, honoring the past while powering the future.
