Traffic Shift Coming to Santa Fe and Mineral

The Santa Fe and Mineral Improvements Project is making progress, and traffic shifts are coming to accommodate further work.

Starting in late April and lasting until further notice, both directions of traffic on Mineral Avenue from just west of the Santa Fe Drive intersection to west of Platte River Parkway will be shifted to the north side of the roadway into two-way, single lane alignment.

To accommodate this reduced alignment and keep east-west traffic flowing, the traffic signals at the Platte River Parkway and Mineral Avenue intersection will be removed, with north-south access limited to right turn lanes only to and from westbound Mineral Avenue. Detour routes will be posted to access eastbound Mineral Avenue via Aspen Grove and Santa Fe Drive.

This temporary traffic pattern will remain in place until further notice while crews widen the south portion of the roadway and make traffic signal and pedestrian improvements. If possible, alternative routes that avoid the project area are highly encouraged during this temporary traffic pattern. The public’s patience is appreciated as another important phase of the project nears.
