Project
Description
Improve the outdated
interchanges and interstate roadway in order to meet
current, higher
safety standards. Specifically, to improve the substandard
access ramps at Rockrimmon Boulevard, Mark Dabling Boulevard and
North Nevada Avenue.
Design an interchange
that will help improve traffic flow for both current and
future
conditions. Improvements will be consistent with recommendations
of the Environmental Assessment to address mobility
throughout the I-25
Corridor in El Paso County.
Reduce the number of
access points in this segment of the interstate. Too
many
closely spaced on- and off-ramps create difficult conditions for
motorists entering and exiting the interstate.
Improve local traffic
mobility, including a better east-west connection
between North
Nevada Avenue and Rockrimmon Boulevard.

Project
Solutions
The new interchange
concept includes a plan for local street reconfigurations
in
collaboration with the City of Colorado Springs that accommodates
local
traffic patterns and improves interchange access.
An interchange concept
has been identified that responds to the operational
requirements of
the site and the concerns and desires of the Colorado
Department of
Transportation (CDOT), the City and the local community.
