Community Services
Temporary Traffic Calming Corridor: The City of Edgewater has been awarded an Active People Active Places Grant through the Denver Regional Council of Governments and Department of Public Health & Environment to implement a temporary traffic calming corridor on 25th Ave. This temporary street modification will provide new techniques in calming traffic while providing local drivers the ability to test out several street modifications. The corridor has been designed using techniques recommended in the 2019 Traffic Calming Mobility Plan. This project will be a catalyst in improving the way Edgewater looks at streets as places for people, not just moving traffic, while promoting and prioritizing active transportation modes—walking and bicycling. The street modifications are scheduled to be in place by June 26th and kept in place until the end of July between Ames St. and Benton St. on 25th Ave. For more information about these changes please visit www.edgewaterco.com.
