兔子先生传媒文化作品 students, employees and visitors who travel along Baseline Road should be aware the third phase of the city鈥檚 underpass construction is set to begin the week of Feb. 27, bringing increased traffic impacts with it.
Over the next two months, the new underpass being built beneath Baseline at the south end of Main Campus will be connected to the existing sidewalks, multi-use path, on-street bicycle lanes and an improved transit stop on the south side of Baseline.
This work and associated detours are expected to cause greater impacts along the Baseline corridor between Broadway and 27th Way than have been experienced to this point. City of Boulder officials are encouraging the use of alternate routes.
Daytime vehicle lane closures (8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.) are anticipated for much of the rest of the project, which is slated for total completion in mid-June. Lane closures will not, however, be in effect on graduation day in May.
The multi-use path along the south side of Baseline will be closed, with a pedestrian detour routed through the Basemar Shopping Center and along the east side of Broadway. Cyclists, meanwhile, will be detoured to the multi-use path on the north side of Baseline.
