Draft Bend Redevelopment Plan

The Bend Revitalization Initiative and Consultant DuBois & King prepared a draft Bend Redevelopment Plan.

One goal of preparing the Redevelopment Plan is to create a safe and enjoyable recreation experience, both for Bend residents as well as others who wish to use the trail from Greater Greensboro and neighboring towns. For example, the Plan includes construction of a parking area to keep visitors from parking on Main Street, and installation benches, picnic tables, bike racks, and other amenities for trail users.

Another goal of the Redevelopment Plan is to bring economic development to the Bend, or in other words, bring new jobs to Greensboro Bend residents. The arrival of the Rail Trail will attract many trail users to the Bend, and this is a real business opportunity.

Two other long-term goals of the BRI are bringing affordable housing to the Bend, and making the Bend a more attractive community for raising children.


Summer 2021

Planning Study – Public Information Session

The Bend Master Plan seeks to develop an economic revitalization plan for Greensboro Bend centered around future improvements to the Lamoille Valley Rail Trail. Linear park designs, improved streetscapes, recreational resources, and economic development opportunities for the Greensboro Bend village will be developed through open, public planning process during the summer and fall of 2021. We hope to see you at the Visioning Meeting and Open House on August 5th, 7 PM.
