County seeking feedback on concept plans
Boulder County, Colo. – Boulder County Transportation will host an open house to present concepts for extending the Boulder Canyon Trail further west along State Highway 119/Boulder Canyon Drive from its current terminus near Fourmile Canyon Drive west to Chapman Drive.
What: Public Open House
When: Thursday, Jan. 21, 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Where: Alfalfa’s Market Community Room – 1651 Broadway, Boulder
The meeting is an opportunity for the public to review the concept plans and options and provide feedback that will help inform the design process.
The goal of the project is to extend the off-street path for bicyclists and pedestrians in Boulder Canyon. The path will connect to the Chapman Drive trailhead and Flagstaff Mountain Trails and includes a potential new route to Betasso Preserve. Boulder County Transportation is working on this project with help from the Colorado Department of Transportation and the City of Boulder, and project funding is coming from all three entities.
A feasibility report was completed in 2011. This report is available on the project website –www.BoulderCanyonTrail.com.
