2C road re-paving begins in Colorado Springs

Yahoo15-05-2025
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The City of Colorado Springs has started re-paving projects throughout the city using voter-approved 2C tax funds.
The City started in the Broadmoor Bluffs Neighborhood in May, but plans to expand their workload for the summer.
'This year, we're focused mostly to the west side of the city, but we're going to be hitting Bridle Pass Drive. We're going to be hitting Test Drive, which is nearby there, Oro Blanco, we are going to be on Flying W Ranch,' said Bryan Wilson, the City's Operations Manager for 2C.
Work is also planned for other streets across the City.
They will use an O-C-I index to make sure they are hitting streets that are right in the sweet spot of being in good condition and needing a full repair.
'They give us a score on a 0 to 100 scale.' Wilson commented, 'The 2C program focuses on roads that are between a 30 O-C-I value and 70 because those are roads that have significant distress.'
The city also said if your road is in need of repair, to 'be patient' because if there are water lines underneath that also need replacing in the next couple of years, they want to hold off so the road isn't patched with repairs just a couple years later.

Colorado wildfires: Lee Fire grows to more than 100K acres amid ‘near-critical' weather

Update: The Lee Fire has now grown to be the 5th largest wildfire in state history. Follow the latest updates here. DENVER (KDVR) — One of the fires burning now more than 100,000 acres in Rio Blanco County in northwest Colorado continues to grow during ongoing 'near-critical fire weather' conditions, though fire crews are slowly starting to contain the blaze. The Lee Fire, one of two fires in Rio Blanco County in addition to the much smaller Elk Fire, has burned 106,672 acres near the town of Meeker. The Elk Fire has held relatively steady at 14,635 acres, fire officials reported Sunday morning. Colorado Wildfire Map Both fires do have some containment, according to officials, with the Elk Fire 9% contained and the Lee Fire 6% contained. More than 1,000 personnel are working on fire response. The Lee Fire is the 6th largest fire in Colorado history, according to the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control. 'Although crews were able to make excellent progress with firefighting efforts, and there was less smoke in the air as days before, firefighters still saw extreme fire behavior today,' officials said in a Saturday night post. The extreme fire behavior was likely to continue Sunday amid low humidity, gusty winds and a lack of cloud coverage. 'The very dry fuels with the expected weather could result in extreme fire behavior in some areas of the fire,' officials said Sunday morning. Several areas of Rio Blanco County and Garfield County are under evacuation or pre-evacuation notices. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
