120th Avenue Corridor Study

Description, Goals, and Outcomes

120th Avenue is a key corridor for Adams County, City of Brighton, City of Commerce City, and the region. It is critical for many different users, including:

• Students and parents accessing the schools
• Residents with limited ways of entering or exiting their community
• Heavy trucks delivering freight
• Bicyclists and pedestrians that are forced to share the road with heavy trucks
• Those interested in accessing community resources
• Commuters traveling to local and regional destinations

Developing a cohesive vision for the corridor is the first step to improve safety, function, capacity, and reliability for years to come. That vision must accommodate existing and future development, and balance traffic demand while not compromising safety. The vision will inform design recommendations and strategies for implementation. We are inviting the community to provide their input and feedback on this project.
