Project Description/Purpose:30th_1.gif

This project will install pedestrian, bicycle, transit stop and vehicular improvements so that it functions optimally for all travel modes and supports the residents, employees, businesses and property owners along and adjacent to 30th Street. The project will make the following improvements:

  • 30th Street bike lanes from Arapahoe Avenue to Pearl Street;
  • New bridge and pedestrian/bicycle underpass on 30th Street at Boulder Left Hand and North Boulder Farmer's ditch (just south of Pearl Street);
  • Multi-use path connection between the east side of 30th Street and Goose Creek Greenway (the path connection on the west side already exists);
  • Mid-block pedestrian crossings on 30th Street between Canyon Boulevard and Walnut Street and between Pearl Street and Goose Creek Greenway;
  • An additional left turn lane for northbound 30th Street at Pearl Street
  • 10-foot wide sidewalk on the east side of 30th Street from Arapahoe Avenue to Walnut Street;
  • Transit stop amenities and urban streetscape improvements in portions of the corridor; and
  • Underground portions of the power line on the east side of 30th Street.
