Westbound Arapahoe Avenue to reopen between Folsom and 15th streets on Saturday
Aug 15th
On Saturday, Aug. 17, westbound Arapahoe Avenue is scheduled to reopen, providing traffic flow in both directions between Folsom and 15th streets. On Monday, Aug. 19, the JUMP bus route is scheduled to return to Arapahoe Avenue (in both directions), with temporary bus stop closures.
This second phase of construction, with both directions of traffic open, will remain in effect through mid-May 2014. During off-peak daytime hours (8:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.), sections of Arapahoe Avenue will be narrowed to one lane of alternating traffic. There will be some single-lane closures along short stretches of Arapahoe Avenue, but traffic flow will be maintained in both directions. The second phase includes underground utility installation, irrigation relocation, and construction of curbs, gutters, driveways, and sidewalks.
The first phase of the project completed:
· reconstruction of Arapahoe Avenue between 15th and 17th streets into concrete, including underground utilities and extension of the existing student drop-off lane and multi-use path along the Boulder High School property on the south side of Arapahoe Avenue;
· installation of a new gas main between 17th and 21st streets; and
· installation of new storm sewers between 15th and 17th streets, and Folsom and 21st streets.
“An important section of Arapahoe Avenue has been reconstructed from a badly rutted, asphalt street into a smooth, durable concrete roadway between 15th and 17th streets,” said Director of Public Works for Transportation Tracy Winfree. “The city appreciates the community’s patience and understanding while we continue to improve this major roadway, identified as a high-priority reconstruction by the Capital Investment Strategy Committee.”
From mid-May through mid-August 2014, Arapahoe Avenue is scheduled to be reduced to one eastbound lane of traffic, with westbound traffic detoured onto Canyon Boulevard. Businesses along Arapahoe Avenue will remain open and the Boulder Farmers’ Market will remain at its current location.
By fall 2014, Arapahoe Avenue is scheduled to be completely reconstructed into concrete between Folsom and 15th streets, along with additional enhancements. The project is funded by the 2011 voter-approved Capital Improvement Bond. For more information, call 303-441-3266 or visit www.bouldertransportation.net and select “Arapahoe Avenue Reconstruction.”
