Safety on parallel streets

Denver is conducting a safety study<https://colfaxbrt.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=75c982ba1073fe2022e058592&id=7a70e3cf5c&e=4be30e3cbf> of East 13th, 14th, 16th, 17th, and 18th Avenues between Broadway and Yosemite Street to identify recommendations for safety improvements alongside the design of the East Colfax Ave. BRT. This study will analyze crash data, user volumes (vehicles/pedestrians/bicyclists), traffic speed data, and community input to develop recommendations for reducing crashes on these streets.

Share your input!

Share your location-specific concerns on the digital map and complete the brief survey<https://colfaxbrt.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=75c982ba1073fe2022e058592&id=fc92c23461&e=4be30e3cbf>. Based on community input collected in Q1 2024, the team will begin making recommendations for safety improvements in mid-2024. Implementation of these recommendations is dependent on funding.

Proposed Curbside Access Plan

As part of the East Colfax Ave. BRT project, the team is conducting a Curbside Access Plan (CAP)<https://colfaxbrt.us6.list-manage.com/track/click?u=75c982ba1073fe2022e058592&id=51d6f473f1&e=4be30e3cbf> to study parking utilization and recommend curb regulations between Broadway, Colorado Blvd., 13th and 17th Avenues. Based on data and community input collected last fall, the team developed updated recommendations and is looking for additional input.

Tell us what you think!
