West Dartmouth Ave Multi-Modal Safety Improvements

Project Overview

The West Dartmouth Multi-Modal Safety Improvements project will modify the W Dartmouth corridor from S. Platte River Dr. to S. Zuni St. The project will seek to improve the corridor for alternative forms of transportation such as bicycling, walking and bus transit. The project will modify the existing pavement markings to implement bike lanes, reconstruct curb ramps to meet ADA compliance, replace the traffic signals at Zuni St. and Tejon St. and add improved street lighting. The project will leverage the recently completed Zuni St Bike Lanes and the S. Platte River Trail at either ends to create vastly improved connectivity for bicyclists in the area. This project was identified in the Englewood Walk and Wheel Plan and the Arapahoe County South Platte River Connections Study and will provide a key connection between Englewood neighborhoods west of Santa Fe Drive and east of Santa Fe Drive.

Project Schedule

The design phase started in August of 2022 and will be completed in Spring of 2023. Construction is slated for summer 2024.
