COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KOAA) — The overnight Marksheffel Road closures, which were scheduled for this week, have been postponed, according to the City of Colorado Springs.
The closures have been postponed due to forecasted weather conditions and are now expected to happen in mid-February. The city says when the project happens, closures will be in place from south of Tarren Heights to north of Stetson Hills Boulevard to complete drainage work.
The city says improving the two-lane section of Marksheffel Road between North Carefree Circle and Dublin Boulevard is a priority.
Once improvements are complete, the city says Marksheffel Road will have the following:
- two lanes in each direction with a center median
- improved drainage
- new sidewalks and paths
For more information about the Marksheffel Road improvements, visit the City of Colorado Springs website. For up to date information and road closures, you can call the project hotline at (719)645-4055.
