Boulder County Public Works, in partnership with the City of Boulder and Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), has extended the Boulder Canyon Trail further west along SH 119/Boulder Canyon Drive to Chapman Drive. CDOT completed the work as part of their reconstruction of SH 119 between Boulder and Nederland. The extension will resulted in a 10-foot wide trail from the current terminus near Fourmile Canyon Drive west to Chapman Drive. The trail extension will improve safety for cyclists, pedestrians and motor vehicles traveling in Boulder Canyon.
The project was funded through a State of Colorado grant, Boulder County Sales Tax, and a contribution by the City of Boulder.
