Project Complete

About the Project

Beginning the week of Monday, May 4 crews be working on an ADA ramp project that consists of upgrading 59 curb ramps at various locations in southern Douglas County. The new ramps will be wider, sloped for easier access, and finished with a slip-resistant texture to maximize public safety in all weather conditions. In addition, the project will modify the location of the pedestrian push buttons at these intersections.

  • CO 67 and US 85 – mm 190.5
  • Meadows Pkwy and US 85 – mm 185.2
  • Wolfensberger Road at the I-25 interchange – mm 182
