The 12th Street Team Heads to the Car Show

If you recently attended Greeley Recreation's downtown Touch-a-Truck and Car Show event, you may have seen members of our 12th Street Outfall Outreach team under the City of Greeley tent. Brian Fischer, Monique Perez, and Jackie Michaelsen set up shop to discuss the next phase of 12th Street construction as we continue to build an improved storm drainage system in Greeley.

Phase two through four design is currently underway. Once constructed, this project will extend the new 12th Street storm drain system along 12th Street from 2nd Avenue to 8th Avenue. Construction of phase two is expected to begin in 2025.

Construction along 12th Street will include removal of all asphalt, curb and gutter, and sidewalk to install a substantial storm drain from curb to curb. After, crews will complete street upgrades between the railroad and 8th Avenue include 8ft sidewalks and curb and gutter along both sides of the street, and a revised turnaround for vehicles on the west side of the railroad tracks. Roadway upgrades will also be completed along 7th Avenue between 12th Street and 13th Street. These improvements will consist of a 6ft sidewalk and new curb and gutter along both sides of the street.
