Approve Regulating, Warning, and Guiding Traffic During Temporary Closure of
County Road 88 Between U.S. Highway 85 and County Road 35 for Approximately
Five (5) Days, for Railroad Track Construction
Whereas, the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County, Colorado, pursuant to
Colorado statute and the Weld County Home Rule Charter, is vested with the authority of
administering the affairs of Weld County, Colorado, and
Whereas, pursuant to C.R.S. §42-4-106(6)(a), "...local authorities, with their respective
jurisdiction may, for the purpose of road construction and maintenance, temporarily close
to through traffic or to all vehicular traffic any highway or portion thereof for a period not
to exceed a specified number of work days for project completion and shall, in conjunction
with any such road closure establish appropriate detours or provide for an alternative
routing of the traffic affected...", and
Whereas, pursuant to said Statute and upon the basis of traffic and personnel
investigations, the Board has determined that conditions exist which make it necessary
to temporarily close County Road 88, between U.S. Highway 85 and County Road 35, to
through traffic and to regulate, warn and guide vehicular traffic by posting signs thereon,
with said closure being effective October 13, 2025, for approximately five (5) days for
railroad track construction.
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County,
Colorado, deems it necessary to regulate, warn, and guide vehicular traffic on County
Roads and any intersections thereof, and it hereby authorizes and orders the posting of
such traffic control devices as shall be reasonably necessary to regulate, warn, and/or
guide traffic thereon for the safety of the general public and that said traffic control devices
shall conform to the Federal Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices.
Be it further resolved that the Board of County Commissioners of Weld County,
Colorado, does declare and establish that County Road 88, between U.S. Highway 85
and County Road 35, be temporarily closed, with said closure being effective October 13,
2025, for approximately five (5) days for railroad track construction, and further, that
