Firestone-Longmont Mobility Hub
About the Project
Colorado Department of Transportation is reorganizing and expanding resources to create more multimodal options statewide. Adding the Firestone-Longmont mobility hub will enable greater use of Bustang, the statewide transit system, to encourage ride sharing instead of single-occupant vehicle use.
Benefits of Project
The hub will improve multimodal access to promote regional transit and include:
- A northbound pedestrian pick-up and drop-off platform along the I-25 off-ramp
- A new platform on southbound Frontage Road just before the entrance of the southbound on-ramp
- A sidewalk and pedestrian underpass to connect users from the Park-n-Ride on the east side of I-25 to the station platforms on the west side of I-25
- Greater capacity with 269 parking spaces
- Large sidewalks and bicycle storage racks allow for multiple modes to utilize the hub and enhance multimodal connectivity
- Bus shelters will be installed with an electronic public information board with real-time Bustang departure and arrival schedules.

Traffic Impacts
East I-25 Frontage Road
- The Colorado Department of Transportation will be closing access to the East I-25 Frontage Road from Colorado Highway 119 starting Feb. 12 to allow crews to place a deep storm sewer pipe across the road and other intersection work with the least impact on CO 119 traffic.
- The closure will be in place until March 15. A posted detour that goes through town has been approved by Firestone.
