Cyclists on E 26th Ave are getting a safety upgrade with the installation of protected bike lanes between Vine Street and Josephine Street.
This project moves Denver closer to its goal of a connected, safer cycling network, reducing the risk of vehicle collisions for commuters traveling through the 80237 zip code area.
The project, identified as CTN-2 under the RISE Bike program, focuses on creating a dedicated space for bikes that is physically separated from car traffic. While specific budget totals and construction timelines were not included in the latest filing, the project marks a concrete shift in how the city manages traffic flow on this stretch of E 26th Ave.
Residents can attend public meetings regarding this and other capital projects at Denver City Hall or find more details via the city's project portal.
