Project Description
The West Colfax BID sought to install right-of-way mobility enhancements to promote safe and easy pedestrian and bicycle access between neighborhood amenities, retail and public transit.
The project consisted of wayfinding signage that directs people from the West Corridor transit stops to West Colfax, wayfinding signage along 17th Avenue and 14th Avenue, and artistic enhancements to several bus shelters along West Colfax. Installation was completed in 2014.
The project was awarded a Denver 2015 Mayor’s Design Award. The award program recognizes “excellence in design that makes the Denver community more interesting, provocative and memorable”.
