East Arapahoe Multi-Use Path and Transit Stops Project

Enhance multimodal safety, access and connectivity on East Arapahoe by:

• Completing gaps in the pedestrian and multi-use path network
• Creating off-street pedestrian and bicycle connections to local and regional transit service
• Enhancing nine bus stops with shelters, trash receptacles and other amenities to provide a safe and comfortable environment for waiting transit passengers

Based on community feedback gathered through public meetings and a questionnaire, the design features:

• The addition of a 12-foot multi-use path and 8-foot landscape buffer, where it can be accommodated within the existing public right-of-way.
• In limited segments east of Eisenhower Drive, a 10-foot multi-use path and 2 to 8-foot landscaped buffer
• Buffer landscaping throughout the corridor, with some hardscape buffers in appropriate locations
• Enhancements to 10 transit stops along the corridor.

This project is part of the East Arapahoe Transportation Plan, a long-range plan that will consider a number of potential transportation improvements within the East Arapahoe corridor, including biking and walking enhancements, Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) and local bus service and automobile travel.
