If you’re over in Lincoln Park / La Alma, you’ve noticed the street maintenance on West 13th Ave between Kalamath and Osage, beginning Monday, May 12, 2008. According to Denver Public Works, that project will be ongoing for the next four weeks. The work includes reconstruction of the pavement and utility work conducted by Xcel Energy. The light rail routes in the area will not be affected by this street construction. This work is scheduled to last four weeks; Public Works advises alternate routes during this period.
Also, look for one-day closures on Colfax Avenue this Sunday, May 18th, for the annual Colfax Marathon. Here’s a map of the course; the runners won’t spend much time in District 9, but they’ll be in northwest Denver for a good part of the route.
