About 120th Avenue
120th Avenue is an important regional corridor that has been identified for multimodal improvements in various plans and studies. The corridor has been identified as part of the High Injury Network and a Critical Corridor by the Denver Regional Council of Governments in the Taking Action on Vision Zero Plan.(External link) Additionally, the corridor is identified as a potential Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) corridor in the 2014 Northwest Area Mobility Study (NAMS)(External link) and the 2016 Broomfield Transportation Master Plan(External link) , highlighting the need to study potential improvements that can support transit on the corridor.
Commuting Solutions played a key role in completing the Northwest Area Mobility Study (NAMS), which identified 120th Avenue as one of six critical arterial corridors for future transportation investment and regional mobility improvements.
US 287/120th Ave Multimodal Project
Between March 2022 and June 2023, Broomfield in partnership with the Colorado Department of Transportation conducted the US 287/120th Avenue Multimodal Corridor Study. This study was identified as a high priority for Broomfield because the corridor serves as a primary commuter corridor within and through the community.
The US 287/120th Avenue Multimodal Study was completed in June, 2023 and resulted in concept designs for a number of locations to enhance safety, efficiency, and comfort for the traveling public regardless of mode.
