| NEW | Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) | Pikes Peak Area MPO | Burgess and Vollmer Intersection Improvements | Burgess and Vollmer Road Intersection is currently a non-signalized intersection in the Black Forest area, with stop controls on Burgess Road. The intersection is currently two-lane rural roadway without turn bays or acceleration lanes. Roadside ditches were graded to convey surface runoff on both side of the road. There is a need for a safe trail crossing to convey non-motorized traffic between the Black Forest Section 16 Open Space trail, Sand Creek Trail and the proposed Bike Route on Burgess. This project will improve this intersection to a safer operating intersection (options being studied during design are standard signalized intersection or roundabout) and provide a safer ADA compliant trail connection. Also included surface and drainage improvements, signage, striping and road resurfacing if needed. | Intersection Improvements | Safety Improvements | El Paso County | Unfunded | 2050 Planning Cycle | 2040 |
