Day Of Tip: Please arrive to campus as early as possible on Saturday morning. There is often spring road construction on Rt. 12 between Montpelier and Northfield, VT. If you find there is construction, take I-89 and get off at the Northfield exit (exit 5) instead of taking Rt. 12. Please check below for road construction updates and delays.
