As the result of engineering studies and public input, the City is planning to make Pikes Peak Avenue a bike boulevard between S Walnut St and 31st St. Improvements will be installed in two phases, with the first phase occurring during Fall 2024 and the second phase of installation during Spring 2025. 

Changes will include a neighborhood traffic circle at the intersection of Pikes Peak Ave/S Walnut St and a raised crosswalk in the vicinity of Pikes Peak Ave/S 9th St (at the pedestrian signal in proximity to Buena Vista School).  

Safety improvements are also underway for the all-way stop intersection of Pikes Peak Ave/21st St.A pilot project at the intersection of Pikes Peak Ave/30th St is in design.Bike boulevard pavement markings and signs will be installed along the corridor for awareness, in addition to a “bike climbing lane” between 25th St and 27th St to provide dedicated space for cyclists on the steeper grades.
