(May 31, 2022) – The City of Longmont will host a public meeting on Monday, June 6 to share information about several upcoming construction projects happening in central Longmont. The meeting is open to the public and will run from 5:30 – 7 p.m. at the Longmont Senior Center, 910 Longs Peak Avenue.

Attendees will have the opportunity to learn more about the scopes, schedules and potential traffic impacts of projects starting this month and continuing through next year. All of these projects aim to improve safety, mobility and access to critical resources for residents and businesses throughout Longmont.
