Attention Boulder County Cyclists  ---------------------------------------------------  

* Four Mile Canyon Drive -  Boulder Canyon Drive to Salina:  On-going construction of shoulders and guardrails until July 29. Cyclists should use caution and choose other routes to avoid delay.

The initial paving operation on Four Mile Canyon Drive has been completed and the road will once again be open to uphill bicycles after today.  However, shoulder work on the road will continue on weekdays through Friday, July 29 and cyclists are encouraged to use extreme caution and use alternative routes until construction is complete.  The shouldering operation will build up the sides of the road to eliminate the sharp drop-off that is there now.  This drop-off could pose a potential danger to cyclists during construction. Traffic will be reduced to an single lane with one-way only where construction is occurring. 

Please contact Tim Swope at Boulder County Transportation (tswope at co.boulder.co.us, 720.564.2658) if you have any questions about these projects or their impact on bicycle use.
