Vermont transportation agency to hire outreach coordinator
(AP) — Vermont will hire an outreach coordinator to help communities dealing with construction projects, state Transportation Secretary Sue Minter said.
The state wants to catch up to other states that have been more aggressive in keeping constituents informed about transportation projects, Minter told the Burlington Free Press (http://bfpne.ws/1Omgytd ).
The state instructed contractors to include public information officers in construction projects so citizens can know about the best travel routes, detours, and delays.
