E. 120th Avenue Improvements
Project Details
The E. 120th Avenue Improvement Project (from Chambers Road to Buckley Road) is being managed by the Buffalo Ridge Metro District. Commerce City is a financial partner in this project.
The E. 120th Avenue Improvement Project will enhance the corridor between Chambers Road and Buckley Road to improve safety, traffic flow, and accessibility. Planned upgrades include additional travel and turn lanes, new curb and gutter, sidewalks, improved drainage systems, enhanced street lighting, and landscaping improvements.
Project Timeline
-
Construction began in November 2025. Right lane of eastbound 120th Ave is closed at Chambers to allow for construction of widened roadway. Short-term closures of intersecting roads may occur for installation of utilities.
-
Construction is progressing with the project expected to be completed by Fall 2026.
Current Status and Impacts
- Construction continues to progress with utility installation largely complete. Bottom lifts of paving have been placed in eastbound lanes.
- Periodic lane closures and intersection closures will be required. Residents will be notified of specific upcoming closures.
- Signal poles are to be placed at the intersections with Buckley Road and Chambers Road. Due to favorable weather conditions through the winter, project is ahead of schedule.
- With the intergovernmental agreement between the city and the Buffalo Ridge Metropolitan District now approved, the district is moving forward with the project’s construction. Traffic control for the work is scheduled to begin installation the week of Nov. 24. Travelers should use caution in the area and follow all posted signs.
