Project Description
The Colorado Street roadway and sidewalk infrastructure, between S. Carson Street and Saliman Road, is in poor condition. The Carson City Regional Transportation Commission, and Carson City Redevelopment Authority, in cooperation with the Nevada Department of Transportation and Governor’s Office of Economic Development, has allocated funding to make improvements to this street. Project improvements include pavement reconstruction, construction of new sidewalks, enhanced pedestrian crossings, waterline replacement, striping of a buffered bike lane, and other upgrades to roadway and utility infrastructure.
