The resolution directs county staff to review and strengthen existing policies.<\/p>\n<p>Boulder County has partnered with the cities of Boulder, Longmont, Lafayette, and Louisville on this project. Combined investment across all jurisdictions totals $385,000, making it one of the largest collaborative efforts in the county&#8217;s history.<\/p>\n<p>The project includes improvements along SH-7 \/ Ute Highway between Louisville and the intersection with SH-7 \/ Ute Highway. Construction is scheduled to begin in August 2026 with completion expected within 13 months.<\/p>\n<h3>Background<\/h3>\n<p>Funding of $385,000 for this initiative comes from a combination of federal grants, state matching funds, and the Boulder County General Fund. The Board of County Commissioners approved the allocation during the 2024 budget session.<\/p>\n<p>Transportation access remains a key concern. Boulder County&#8217;s Via mobility program provides door-to-door transit service for residents in Louisville and surrounding communities who cannot access fixed-route bus service.
