The Burlington Plan - Inside Burlington’s Parking and Traffic Operations

This week we take a lively trip into the heart of Burlington’s streets with Parking and Traffic Director Jackie Esperti. If you have ever wondered how the city keeps cars moving, buses on schedule, bikes in the right place, and crosswalks safe during a snowstorm, this episode is your backstage pass. Jackie walks us through the daily choreography of curb space, smart meters, garage operations, and the signal timing magic that keeps everyone flowing. From winter parking bans to the art of striping a perfect bike lane, this conversation shows how the smallest operational decisions shape the future of mobility in planBTV 2050. Tune in for a fun and surprisingly human look at the systems that keep Burlington rolling.
