Welcome to the website for
the Upper Valley Intermodal Facility:
The Upper Valley Lake Sunapee Regional Planning Commission has been hired by the NH Department of Transportation to conduct an analysis to determine the best location, if deemed appropriate, to locate a transportation facility connecting the Upper Valley Region of Vermont and New Hampshire.
NEW: The final Upper Valley Intermodal Facility Report and appendices are available here. The Lebanon City Council’s response is available here. Please report any problems accessing the report to Aaron Brown at aaron@vitalcommunities.org. Please send feedback on the substance of the reports to Christine Walker, Upper Valley Lake Sunapee RPC, at cwalker@uvlsrpc.org.
The Upper Valley intermodal transportation facility will:
- serve as a terminal for regional bus transit
- provide connections between regional and local transit
- serve as a public park-and-ride facility
The facility is planned to be located in the Upper Connecticut River Valley of New Hampshire/Vermont, and will directly serve Interstate 89. The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2008 allocated $500,000 to conduct an alternatives analysis of potential sites and design the facility. It is anticipated that upon the completion of the alternatives analysis and design of the facility, the remaining funds from the $500,000 appropriation will be supplemented with additional federal funding to procure land and construct the facility.
