Getting your player ready...
Commerce City broke ground this week on a project to widen Highway 2, between East 72nd Avenue and Interstate 76, from two to four lanes.
The project, which isn’t expected to be completed until 2018, will include a raised and landscaped median, dedicated bicycle lanes, LED street lighting, in-pavement lighting/reflectors, multi-use trail, landscape improvements and improved drainage.
The $27 million effort will require lane closures throughout construction. An open house on the project is scheduled for 5 p.m. Wednesday at Lester Arnold High School, 6500 E. 72nd Ave, Commerce City.
