RESOLUTION: 2006-57
SUBJECT: Agreement with Jefferson County to fund and construct an interchange at C-470 and Alameda.
RECOMMENDATION: Approval
FUNDING SOURCE: Jefferson County and Lakewood Economic Development Funds
SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:
An interchange at C-470/Alameda is a needed transportation system link. The interchange will benefit existing and future Lakewood residents by providing an alternative route to C-470, I-70, Sixth Avenue and the mountains. This will decrease pressure on the Union Boulevard corridor and the Union/Sixth interchange. It will also support primary job creation in the Rooney Valley by improving access to the commercial portions of the Valley within Lakewood.
The proposed agreement will result in the interchange being completed in 2008
with the County providing $6.0 million and the City providing $3.0 million.
During the 1990s, preliminary planning and engineering, and environmental evaluation
occurred for the interchange. The Federal Highway Administration, Colorado Department
of Transportation, Jefferson County and Lakewood approved the concept.
