Public Works is requesting that the board approve applications for two projects to be submitted for STBG and CMAQ funding. Below are the two projects, along with a short description of the improvements. STBG — Application for realignment of WCR 13 at WCR 50 to move the southern leg of WCR 13 to the west to match the northern leg of WCR 13. Will include aux. turn lanes on WCR 13 and WCR 50 at the intersection. We are partnering with Johnstown and Larimer County on this project. Larimer County and Johnstown will share their portion of the $33,929.36 in local match. Johnstown is looking to provide $1,109,506.82 in local overmatch. Weld County will provide $1,414,866.82 in local match and overmatch. Our grant funding request is for $1,632,177.00. Total project cost is estimated at $4,190,480.00. CMAQ — Application to construct left turn lanes on all four legs of the intersection of SH 392 and WCR 37. Construct deceleration lane for eastbound traffic that is turning south. Construct deceleration lane for westbound traffic that is turning north. CDOT will manage the project. The CMAQ grant funding request is for $2,000,000.00. Weld County will cover the entire local match. Total project cost is estimated at $4,059,220.00. What options exist for the Board? 1. Allow Public Works to submit both projects for funding. 2. Select one project for Public Works to submit for funding. 3. Select neither of the projects for funding. Consequences: Weld County will miss out on grant funding opportunity if no applications are submitted. Impacts: Changes to the 2023 CIP will reflect the applications that are submitted for funding. Costs (Current Fiscal Year / Ongoing or Subsequent Fiscal Years): STBG Project (WCR 13/WCR 50) Costs - $1,414,866.82 (2027) CMAQ Project (SH 392/WCR 37) Costs - $2,059,220.00 (2027) Recommendation: Public Works is requesting that the board elect to submit both projects for funding through NFRMPO and place both applications on the BOCC agenda prior to the October 6th submittal date.

Improvements to the WCR 13 corridor at this intersection will have an impact on relieving traffic congestion on I-25 especially at peak travel times. Improvements to WCR 13 as a whole will improve its viability as an alternative route for travelers going north or south in the region. This project will ensure that this alternative route is capable of handling higher traffic volumes without significant decrease in safety.

Please include information related to the causes and severity of current and future congestion. To the extent possible, describe congestion in terms of congestion related performance measures established within the 2050 RTP and the 2023 CMP This project will address safety concerns at the intersection by adding turn lanes in all four directions. The turn lanes will help to increase movement through the intersection by segregating turning vehicles from pass through vehicles. This project will not increase capacity of the road by adding additional lanes of traffic, but will allow for existing lanes of traffic to function more efficiently by moving traffic. These improvements will reduce delay, and increase safety at the intersection. Relocating WCR 13 to match at the same location on the north and south side of WCR 50 will help to improve safety at the intersection greatly. The auxiliary lanes will be designed to CDOT's standard which will allow for adequate storage of vehicles, which will keep through traffic flowing efficiently. The intersection improvements will support the performance measures in the 2050 RTP and the 2023 CMP. Specifically, the project will reduce emissions, reduce peak hour delay, reduce number of fatal crashes, and increase travel time reliability. The project will also slightly improve drive times for individuals utilizing WCR 13, by making it so that the vehicle does not have to enter on to WCR 50. 5 For each strategy, please indicate if the strategy is currently implemented within the project boundaries, or will be implemented within the scope of the project application.

This project will implement safety improvements to the WCR 50 corridor by adding a separated turn lane in both directions of WCR 50 as well as both directions of WCR 13. Included in these improvements will be improved access management near the intersection, with the relocation or elimination of access points near the intersection. The relocation of WCR 13 will in itself be a form of access management by removing a point of conflict on WCR 50. Also included in the improvements are improved signage to warn drivers of the stop condition for north and southbound traffic. Signage on WCR 50 will be improved by reducing the number of signs necessary by combining the intersection at one location.
