Major VT 2A Construction to Cause Delays Through Fall 2025

WILLISTON, Vt. — A major roadwork effort on VT 2A is set to cause “significant” traffic delays in parts of Williston and Essex Junction, the Vermont Agency of Transportation (VTRANS) has announced.
The construction, part of the Williston VT 2A and Industrial Avenue Project, will impact several key intersections. According to VTRANS, motorists should expect delays in the heavily traveled “Five Corners” area of Essex Junction, specifically at the intersection of VT 2A, VT 15, and VT 117. Additionally, backups are anticipated at the U.S. Route 2 and VT 2A intersection in Williston.

Work is scheduled to take place on weekdays and is projected to continue through fall 2025.
The project involves reconstructing about 0.7 miles of VT 2A, stretching from Meadowrun Road to the River Cove Road area. This segment is a critical connector for commuters, local businesses, and freight traffic, and the improvements aim to enhance roadway safety, upgrade infrastructure, and improve traffic flow in the long term.
The Vermont Agency of Transportation emphasized that while the construction period will bring disruptions, the end result will provide substantial benefits to the local community.
Local officials are urging drivers to plan ahead, leave extra travel time, and consider alternate routes where possible. Public transit riders may also experience changes to bus schedules or stops during construction.
Residents and businesses along the corridor are being kept informed through public notices, project updates, and signage, as VTRANS works to minimize disruptions.
For up-to-date traffic information and project details, VTRANS advises the public to visit its official website or follow its social media channels.
