Council directs feasibility study and seeks county, CDOT help to improve East 104th crossings
Summary
Commerce City Council unanimously directed staff to study options to improve crossings at East 104th Avenue and Reunion Parkway and separately approved a letter asking Adams County and CDOT to pursue a traffic signal at East 104th and Brighton Road.
Commerce City Council approved an 8-to-0 motion, with one member excused, directing staff to carry out a feasibility assessment of options to improve safety for people crossing East 104th Avenue at Reunion Parkway.
At administrative business later in the meeting, council members also approved a motion (8 to 0) directing the city manager to draft a letter asking Adams County and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) to move forward with a traffic signal at East 104th Avenue and Brighton Road and to ask staff to explore temporary interim safety measures for the intersection.
Council made the two decisions to address pedestrian and intersection safety along a busy arterial corridor. The feasibility assessment and the intergovernmental letter are distinct next steps: staff will study local options while the draft letter seeks county and state action on a signal.
