CDOT to host series of open houses for the I-270 Corridor Improvements Project

Project Update

April 12, 2024 - Denver/Central Colorado - Public is invited to attend two in-person meetings and a webinar

Denver - The Colorado Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration invite the public to attend a series of open houses to learn about the I-270 Corridor Improvements Project. The project is currently in an Environmental Impact Study phase and public input is needed to better understand what the community and traveling public are most concerned about regarding the I-270 corridor and what improvements they would like to see. This input will help the project team further refine various highway and mobility design concepts.
