THANK YOU!!!

There is a special event today in City Park but it's set up on the the Northeast side of Ferrell Lake.

This is wonderful & as a result, keeps the D8 Bike Route unobstructed.

Thank you so much!

Hopeful that we can do this with most events going forward. 




Respectfully,

Hello again,

A special event is setting up to block the D8 bike route through City Park on Sunday, August 24th.



I still don't understand why events must block this specific stretch of roadway given that so many bike routes connect through this specific section of roadway. 

Other events have used the section of roadway between Ferrell Lake and the Museum of Nature and Science.



Can we please keep the stretch open and otherwise provide detours one closed? 




I haven't made it over there yet, but I suspect Gates entering the park at 21st & City Park Esplanade are closed as well.

This single event closure is obstructing connections from expensive bike facilities like the City Park Esplanade Protected Bikelane & the Garfield Street Neighborhood Bikeway.

I'm not understanding the resistance to this request, if we truly want to get more people commuting by bike in the City of Denver.

Respectfully,

Hello,

Please see the thread below where an event was announced, but no details on road closures or detours were made available.

The event obstructed the D8 Bike Route through City Park on a weekday evening.





What can be done to ensure safe through access is maintained or to provide a clear detour?

Please note, several other bike routes connect to this specific route through City Park, as illustrated by the Denver Moves Bikes update.



Thank you in advance for helping to address this issue. 

Respectfully,

Thank you for the notice.

Can you confirm that the D8 through City Park will be left unobstructed?
If not, will a detour be made available? 

Thank you in advance.
