Project Update

The South Nevada Signals project was completed on April 6, 2026. The City, in partnership with the Colorado Department of Transportation, upgraded two intersections along South Nevada Avenue at Ramona Avenue and St. Elmo Avenue. The project replaced aging traffic signal infrastructure and provided safety upgrades for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers.

About the Project

The City, in partnership with the Colorado Department of Transportation, upgraded two intersections along South Nevada Avenue at Ramona Avenue and St. Elmo Avenue. The project replaced aging traffic signal infrastructure and provided safety upgrades for pedestrians, cyclists and drivers. The work supports the South Nevada Urban Renewal Plan, which focuses on revitalizing this key corridor. 

What was improved?

  • New traffic signals with updated timing 
  • ADA-compliant curb ramps and sidewalks 
  • Improved pedestrian crossings and signage 

Why this matters

These intersections have seen increased traffic and pedestrian activity in recent years. The completed improvements enhance pedestrian safety, improve signal efficiency, support revitalization of the South Nevada corridor, provide better access for people with disabilities, and reduce long-term maintenance needs.
