Approve Regulating, Warning, and Guiding Traffic During Emergency Temporary
Closure of County Road 26, Between U.S. Highway 85 and County Road 31, for
Approximately Three (3) Weeks, for Collapsed Culvert Replacement
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 emergent conditions existed which made it
necessary to temporarily close County Road 26 between U.S. Highway 85 and County
Road 31, on an emergency basis, to through traffic and to regulate, warn and guide
vehicular traffic by posting signs thereon, with said closure being effective October 6,
2025, for approximately three (3) weeks for a collapsed culvert replacement.
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 26 between U.S. Highway 85
and County Road 31, be temporarily closed retroactively and on an emergency basis,
with said closure being effective October 6, 2025, for approximately three (3) weeks for a
collapsed culvert replacement, and further, that standard official traffic control devices
shall be erected at said closure giving notice of the restrictions.
