120th Street Underpass of Coal Creek Regional Trail - Now Complete!
Working collaboratively with Boulder County Transportation, Urban Drainage & Flood Control, and the city’s public works department, the open space division oversaw the construction of an underpass at the 120th Street crossing of Coal Creek Regional Trail. This underpass allows trail users to safely access the eastern part of the regional trail extension which is also slated as a trail project in 2012 named the
Coal Creek/Rock Creek Trail - Eastern Link.
**Please note that the new Coal Creek Trail extension will not connect to the new Eastern Link until late winter/early spring 2013 and currently dead ends approximately 300 yards east of the underpass.**
Coal Creek East Open Space & Easement Trail Segments (CCRT)
Extending from the CCT 120th Underpass Project, this portion of the Coal Creek Regional Trail navigates across a parcel known as Coal Creek East Open Space and a private property through which the city owns a trail easement. This project provides the long desired connection just north of Vista Business Park on Two Creeks Open Space of the Coal Creek and Rock Creek regional trails.
**Please note that this new Coal Creek Trail extension will not connect to the new Eastern Link until late winter/early spring 2013 and currently dead ends approximately 300 yards east of the underpass at 120th Street.**
Mayhoffer 15 Northern Trail Segment
Running along the northern edge of Mayhoffer 15 Open Space, this newly created segment runs east-west from the South Pointe subdivision to 104th Street. Mayhoffer 15 Open Space is located south of Highway 42/Empire Road between Highway 287 & 104th Street. Long-term plans are to establish a loop around the agriculturally leased open space parcel and the South Pointe neighborhood. At present, a 1 mile soft-surface trail runs along the south side of the open space and neighborhood connecting to 104th Street and ties into the neighborhood's sidewalk system.
