May 3, 2024 – Due to weather and other factors, the City of Longmont is extending the full 24-hour closure of both lanes of Longs Peak Avenue from S. Sunset Street to the entrance to the Sunset Golf Course through Wednesday, May 8. The additional 3-day closure is necessary to complete construction required to reopen upper Longs Peak Avenue.

Construction hours are daily from 7 am to 7 pm. However, the eastbound and westbound lanes will remain closed overnight due to various construction activities. Detour signs will direct westbound traffic from S. Sunset Street to 9^th Avenue.

Longs Peak Avenue from Hover Street to the Sunset Golf Course will remain open at all times. Access to the Sunset Golf Course parking lot will be open during construction. Local residential traffic will have access from Hover Street.

The public is encouraged to use 3^rd Avenue, 9^th Avenue and Hover Street to avoid this section of Longs Peak Avenue until the roadwork is completed. Upper and lower Longs Peak Avenue will be restored to its original configuration after the work is complete.

Current project information and traffic impacts can be found on the Price Park Tank Replacement project webpage.
