Intersection at Cedar Street and Colorado

The south side of Colorado at Cedar Street pools with water. This becomes a problem in the winter with freeze/thaw cycles that result in a slush pond or ice field that quickly spans the width of Colorado. Since there are no sidewalks in this area, residents who are walking are often forced to traverse this slush pond that can be several inches deep or skate their way across if the pond has turned to ice.

Thanks for considering this location for improvements!

Also, I'd like to suggest coordinating with organizations that can offer funding/incentives to land stewards in our watershed to implement soil health practices on their land that encourage better water infiltration and therefore slow the runoff of water from their properties that then result in increased storm runoff in town. The more water we can keep on our surrounding ranches/farms, the less that ends up in our town's storm drainage systems.
