Third Edwards Spur Road meeting set for Nov. 9

The third meeting of the project leadership team for phase II of I-70 interchange upgrades in Edwards will take place at 9:30 a.m. Nov. 9 at the Eagle County Building. Team members include representatives from Eagle County, the Colorado Department of Transportation and the community. All project leadership team meetings are open to the public.

The project encompasses roadway improvements along the Edwards Spur Road from Miller Ranch Road to U.S. Highway 6, including the intersection. The design effort is following CDOT’s “I-70 Mountain Corridor Context Sensitive Solutions” process, which incorporates public outreach and open houses to solicit input. The next public open house is planned for spring of 2016. Information gathered at these meetings will be considered in the evaluation of design alternatives.

Details on the planning and design process are available at www.eaglecounty.us/Engineering/Edwards_Interchange_Project. For more information, contact Eagle County Engineer Eva Wilson at 970-328-3560 or at eva.wilson@eaglecounty.us.
