The City of Longmont will host a Sept. 27 open house to share information about the Coffman Street Busway Project in downtown Longmont. The event will run from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at The St. Vrain, 635 3rd Ave (on the southeast corner of 3rd Ave. & Coffman St.).  

The open house will feature poster stations where attendees can learn from the Coffman Street Project Team about the new community vision for Coffman Street, including important components such as transit and bike lanes. Attendees will also have the opportunity to submit feedback on corridor characteristics such as trees, landscaping, parking and bus stops. Staff from the Regional Transportation District (RTD) and Boulder County will also be on hand to answer questions regarding transit in the Coffman corridor and the proposed Diagonal Highway (SH-119) bikeway respectively. Spanish interpretation will be available.  

Please note that in compliance with the current Boulder County Public Health Order, masks will be required at this event.  

If you would like to provide feedback but cannot attend, additional opportunities to learn more about the project and submit feedback will be available on Engage Longmont in the coming weeks.

About the Coffman Street Busway Project

The Coffman Street Busway project seeks to rebuild Coffman Street, from 1st Avenue to 9th Avenue, as a world-class, multi-modal corridor to support residents, businesses, visitors, people riding bikes, pedestrians, commuters, the environment, and the City. Project highlights include protected bike lanes for safe bicycle travel, transit lanes to reduce congestion, parking for local businesses, improved sidewalks, and additional landscaping for a walkable and vibrant community.
