Arapahoe AVE multimodal improvements

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) a Formula Grant of $2,299,975 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on July 2, 2025, for design and environmental work associated with the Arapahoe Avenue Multimodal Improvements project in Colorado. The project encompasses multimodal transportation infrastructure improvements along Arapahoe Avenue from 28th Street to Foothills, with a scheduled completion date of March 30, 2027. The funding supports preliminary engineering and environmental compliance activities necessary to advance the project, including planning studies, design development, and National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance documentation.

CDOT designated the City of Boulder, Colorado as a sub-grantee to support project implementation and delivery. This award reflects the Highway Planning and Construction program's emphasis on multimodal transportation network development and pedestrian/bicycle facility improvements, enabling the state and local government partners to develop comprehensive infrastructure solutions that enhance connectivity and transportation options across the region.
