South Broadway Complete Streets

Work Performed in August

• West-side sidewalk light poles: Most locations have been completed. Approximately six light-pole locations remain on the west side of South Broadway.
• Southbound Kenyon bus stop: Work has been completed, and the bus stop has reopened.

• Oxford Avenue Improvements: Excavation and placement of base material, drainage work, concrete placement, and corner improvements.

Work Anticipated in September

Construction activities will continue throughout the South Broadway corridor during September, with a primary focus on completing work near Oxford Avenue, remaining sidewalk and lighting improvements, and median work.

• Oxford Avenue Improvements: Continue excavation and placement of base material, followed by curb-and-gutter forming, drainage work, concrete placement, and corner improvements.
• Oxford Avenue Bus Pad: Complete bus-pad construction along with associated concrete, grading, and restoration.
• Sidewalk and Light-Pole Work: Continue sidewalk improvements and complete the remaining light-pole locations along the west side of South Broadway.
• Median Improvements: Continue median work and installation of median cover at Mansfield, Chenango, Quincy and Kenyon avenues.
• Caisson Work: Relocate or replace caissons near Belleview Avenue and other affected locations as necessary.
• Final Restoration: Complete grading, cleanup and restoration of disturbed areas as individual construction activities are completed.

Work at S. Broadway and E. Oxford Avenue is now in its final stage.

The construction schedule in this area was extended due to an unforeseen condition at the site and a conflict with the adjacent building foundation. The project team is carefully evaluating and addressing these conditions, while continuing to advance the work toward completion.

Work activities and sequencing are subject to change based on weather, site conditions, and construction progress.

Thank you for your patience as we work to improve the South Broadway corridor and pedestrian safety.

Motorists should expect brief midday traffic impacts on South Broadway on Friday, June 26, 2026, as contractors complete final asphalt work.

Southbound Broadway between Quincy Avenue and Radcliff Avenue will be temporarily closed for approximately one hour. Once that work is complete, crews will shift to the northbound lanes, resulting in a temporary closure of northbound Broadway from Quincy Avenue toward Princeton Avenue.

Detour routes and traffic control will be in place during both closures, and a uniformed traffic officer will assist motorists through the area.

Drivers should expect minor delays, follow posted detours and use caution while traveling through the work zone. Construction schedules may change due to weather or field conditions.

Temporary Median Removal
The medians along South Broadway have been temporarily removed to help maintain traffic flow during construction. As crews reinstall the 13 bus pads along the corridor, traffic will shift around active work zones. Removing the medians allows vehicles to move safely through these areas. The medians will be reconstructed and reinstalled later in the project.

We appreciate the community’s patience as these improvements take shape and help create a safer, more accessible South Broadway for everyone.

The South Broadway Complete Streets project is officially underway. Crews are making steady progress on efforts to improve safety, accessibility and transit efficiency throughout the corridor. Here’s a look at what was accomplished last month and what you can expect in the weeks ahead.

Work performed in January
Construction activities began in January with the installation of traffic control devices throughout the project limits. Initial impacts occurred at Belleview Avenue and South Broadway, including the temporary closure of the RTD bus stop. This closure allowed crews to reconstruct the corner to meet ADA standards and provide an improved bus stop.

Median removal also began along the South Broadway corridor.

Work anticipated in February
Construction at the RTD bus stop and the intersection of Belleview Avenue and S. Broadway is anticipated to be completed in early February. Median removal operations will continue along the corridor.

Beginning in mid-February, the RTD bus stop at Chenango Avenue is expected to be temporarily closed so crews can complete renovation work. Please see RTD’s route alerts page for information regarding RTD bus stop closures and detours in this area. RTD Service Alerts

Crews have been surveying and preparing the South Broadway corridor for the start of construction, and traffic impacts will begin Monday, January 19.

What to Expect:

• Inside lane closures near the medians along the corridor from Belleview Avenue to Hampden
• These lane closures will move along the corridor as the median work progresses through late February

Drivers are encouraged to allow extra time for travel or use alternate routes.

The South Broadway Complete Streets project will bring upgraded bus stops and intersections, new bike infrastructure on South Sherman Street and streetscape improvements such as lighting, wayfinding and landscaping. These updates support a safer, more connected and welcoming corridor for everyone who travels through South Broadway.
