Cyclists riding through RiNo will soon have a physical buffer between themselves and vehicle traffic on E 26th Ave.
The city is installing a protected bike lane on the stretch of E 26th Ave between Vine Street and Josephine Street. This infrastructure upgrade aims to increase safety for commuters and residents navigating the neighborhood near Brighton Blvd.
The project is part of the RISE Bike initiative, focusing on creating a more connected and secure cycling network across the city. While specific budget figures and construction timelines were not included in the latest filing, the project focuses on the 80211 zip code area.
Residents can attend public meetings regarding this project at Denver City Hall or find more details via the city's capital projects portal.
