Cherryvale construction underway; significant delays expected
Jun 14th
Boulder County, Colo. – The Boulder County Transportation Department has begun construction on Cherryvale Road between Arapahoe and Baseline roads.
Cherryvale is currently open to through traffic, with significant delays expected through August. Cyclists and motorists are encouraged to use detours on 55th and 75th streets to avoid delays.
Daytime road closures may become necessary to expedite certain phases of the road reconstruction and overlay. Any closures will be announced two weeks in advance.
Elements of the Cherryvale project include:
• Widening the roadway approximately 6 feet to improve safety and accessibility for bicycles and pedestrians
• Replacing road culverts to improve drainage
• Construction of a soft-surface pedestrian path on the west side of the road between Reserve Drive and Arapahoe Road
• Reconstruction and overlay of Cherryvale between Baseline and Arapahoe roads
• Reconstruction of Dimmit Drive with turn restrictions implemented at Gapter Road
• Restriping to provide 5-foot bike shoulders
Message boards are located in the area to alert residents of any construction schedule changes. Additional information and updates are available at www.BoulderCounty.org/Transportation.
