95th closed Valmont to Isabelle; Residential and emergency access only during work hours

Boulder County, Colo. - The
95th
Street Intersections Improvement Project will restart at 8 a.m. on Monday, Aug.
28. After hearing from the public about the impacts from a full (24/7) closure,
Boulder County Transportation has made the following adjustments:

95th
Street CLOSED from just north of Valmont Road to the Lafayette city limits

• 8 a.m. to 4:30
  p.m., Monday through
  Friday
• The closure
  includes 95th Street intersections with Valmont and Isabelle roads.

Local
residential traffic only during working hours

• On
  95th Street from Lookout to Valmont roads
• On
  95th Street from Valmont Road to Lafayette city limits
• On
  Isabelle Road from Hwy 287 to 95th Street
• On
  Valmont Road from 75th Street to 95th Street
• Access
  to the City of Boulder’s Teller Farm Trailhead will be maintained on Valmont
  Rod from the west via 75th Street

Work
and the associated road closure is expected to last through November, but we
will do our best to beat that deadline.

The
goals of the project are to increase safety for all modes of travel by:

• Widening
  95th Street to lengthen the center turn lane for both intersections
  while maintaining the standard paved shoulder along with a southbound
  right-turn lane onto Valmont Road from 95th Street;
• Widening
  Isabelle Road to allow for an additional turn lane onto 95th Street;
  and,
• Making
  geometric improvements on Valmont Road at the intersection to improve cyclist
  and motorist safety and roadside stormwater drainage.

Emergency
services have been notified of the planned closure and will have access through
the construction zone at all times. Residents, and their guests, living in the
work zone will also be able to access their homes, except for short delays when
crews are working directly in front of driveways.
