The Vermont Transportation Agency is looking for ways to improve safety on a steep stretch of state Route 9 in Bennington where two people were killed in April.
The agency is planning to install brightly colored signs and a device that will send truckers a verbal warning through a citizen’s band radio that they need to pay attention.
Lawmakers and state officials met Wednesday to discuss ways to improve the steep, downhill section of Route 9 that ends in a sharp curve.
State officials told the lawmakers the signs should be in place by July and the radio alert system by the fall.
