Site work and paving for a road / highway in Longmont, Colorado. Conceptual plans call for site work for a road / highway; and for paving for a road / highway.

This 2-phase project improves Weld County Road 26 from County Line Road to the east limits of City ownership just east of Union Reservoir. Phase 1 improvements include widening and upgrading the deteriorated chip seal access road from County Line Road to the Union Reservoir entrance to a full hot-mix asphalt pavement roadway. The minor roadway widening will support paved shoulders and bike traffic. The remainder of WCR 26 from the Union Reservoir entrance to the east limits of City ownership would be addressed in Phase 2 of the project. Phase 2 would be a collaborative effort between Engineering Services and the Parks & Open Space Department. Preliminary design concepts include a minor realignment of WCR 26 to the south to support a new looped trail connection along the south side of Union Reservoir. Improvements to WCR 26 may include minor drainage improvements and installation of a hot mix asphalt surface on the roadway. Design and construction costs for both the PRO-010 trail and WCR 26 improvements are included under this CIP. The Park Improvement Fund is responsible for all costs to build the trail connection. All other costs to realign and construct the actual roadway are captured by the Street Fund. As of March 10, 2022, this project is currently in the FY 2022-2026 CIP .
