Full closure of 95th Street starts Monday, Aug. 14

Road closed between Lookout and Valmont roads; Residential and emergency access only

Boulder County, Colo. - The 95th Street Intersections Improvement Project requires the full closure of 95th Street between Lookout and Arapahoe roads, 24-hours per day, seven days per week, starting at 8 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 14. The 95th Street intersections at Valmont and Isabelle roads will also be closed during the project. Work and the associated road closure is expected to last through November, but the Transportation Department will work hard to beat that deadline. 

The goals of the project are to increase safety for all modes of travel by:

• Widening 95th Street to lengthen the center turn lane for both intersections while maintaining the standard paved shoulder along with a southbound right-turn lane onto Valmont Road from 95th Street;
• Widening Isabelle Road to allow for an additional turn lane onto 95th Street; and,
• Making geometric improvements on Valmont Road at the intersection to improve cyclist and motorist safety and roadside stormwater drainage.

Emergency services have been notified of the planned closure and will have access through the construction zone at all times. Residents living in the work zone will also be able to access their homes, except for short delays when crews are working directly in front of driveways.

Access to the City of Boulder’s Teller Farm Trailhead on Valmont Road will be from the west via 75th Street.
