Granby resident urges county to fix trail gap that forces pedestrians into US 40 turning lane
Summary
During public comment Daniela Gosilva told commissioners the recently completed trail near US 40 in Granby does not address a crossing that forces people into a turning lane near the fire station and medical center, raising pedestrian safety concerns as traffic increases.
Daniela Gosilva of 505 East Bruce Drive (Granby) used the public comment period to describe a persistent pedestrian safety issue near the new trail and bridge connection on US 40. She said the trail—s paving did not connect all the way and "people end up walking in the turning lane to the fire station," creating a dangerous crossing point.
Gosilva asked the board to consider how the new EMS station and increased bypass trail traffic could aggravate the problem and urged county or CDOT attention on the missing pedestrian connection. Commissioners thanked her and noted the remark for follow‑up in their work with towns and state agencies.
