Trent Park Expansion and Adams Avenue Extension Project

The Town of Silverthorne is beginning an exciting community project to expand Trent Park and extend Adams Avenue! By expanding Trent Park, the Town can continue to provide additional amenities to the community and create more spaces for residents and visitors to play and explore. An extended Adams Avenue will connect the Willowbrook and Smith Ranch neighborhoods. 

Trent Park Expansion

The Trent Park expansion project will provide additional neighborhood amenities to the existing Trent Park on the north side of Willowbrook Road. The expanded park area will be located on the south side of Willowbrook Road on the Trent Park overflow lot. The expanded park will feature: 

• A manufactured bouldering area 
• Basketball court 
• Bicycle pump track
• Court games 
• Warming hut and bathrooms 
• Picnic areas with grills 
• Perimeter trail
• Parking lot 

The Trent Park expansion project has received two grants to assist with funding: 

• $600,000 from Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO) for Community Impact 
• $1,250,000 from the Land and Water Conservation Fund (LWCF)

Adams Avenue Extension

Adams Avenue Extension is a new roadway project that runs north-south to connect Smith Ranch Road to Willowbrook Road, over Willow Creek. The road connection on the south will align with Adams Avenue, cross Willow Creek, and meander to connect east of the houses on Badger Lane.  Construction includes roadway and sidewalk, a 50-foot span bridge, parking on the north side, and a bus stop and mailbox shelter reconstruction. The Adams Avenue Extension will connect Willowbrook and Smith Ranch neighborhoods to share amenities such as Trent Park and trail access.

Silverthorne News

Secure Your Vehicle and Property

The Silverthorne Police Department reminds the community to secure their vehicles and remove valuables from their car when parked. Several vehicle trespasses have been reported recently and it is important to keep vehicles and personal items secure.

Water Meter Replacement

The Town of Silverthorne Water Department is updating its existing fixed network water metering system with advanced water metering analytics that use cellular endpoints for water meter reading. These cellular water meters report data multiple times per day, providing an accurate representation of water use. The new water meters will allow the Town to better manage the water distribution system through continual system monitoring and will provide property owners with more accurate water usage readings and reporting. Water customers will be able to access a secure, web-based portal to monitor their water use, identify ways to conserve water, and set leak alarms.

Replacement Process

The Town of Silverthorne is working with a contractor to begin replacing water meters this summer. Installation typically takes less than an hour and residential water service will be interrupted for five to 10 minutes. Commercial customers may also experience water service interruptions during the installation. To update the water meters, the contractor will need access to the water meter at your property. Water meters are located inside, typically in a mechanical room or crawl space.

There is no cost to water customers to update their meter and there will be no change in water service. Learn more about replacing your water meter and how to schedule an appointment here.
