Construction begins on the Firestone-Longmont mobility hub at I-25 and CO 119
Travel Advisory
Weld County — Starting Jan. 30, the Colorado Department of Transportation will begin construction on the Firestone-Longmont Mobility Hub project located at the I-25 and CO 119 interchange.
Communities along the I-25 corridor are continuing to rapidly expand, creating more congested roadways. This is one of several mobility hubs along the I-25 corridor that are currently under construction and will significantly improve bus service along I-25.
The hub will improve multimodal access to promote regional transit and includes:
- A northbound pedestrian pick-up and drop-off platform along the I-25 off-ramp
- A new pedestrian pick-up and drop-off platform on the east side of the southbound on ramp. A sidewalk and pedestrian underpass to connect users from the Park-n-Ride on the east side of I-25 to the station platforms on the west side of I-25
- Greater capacity with 269 parking spaces
- Large sidewalks and bicycle storage racks allow for multiple modes to utilize the hub and enhance multimodal connectivity
- Bus shelters will be installed with an electronic public information board with real-time Bustang departure and arrival schedules
The Firestone-Longmont Mobility Hub is a part of the multimodal connectivity of the I-25 North improvements. For more information visit the project website listed below. The anticipated completion date of the project is August 2024.
