The trail <br />then merges into a shared road connection to Stearns <br />Lake Trailhead. At a future date, phase two of the project <br />will convert the shared road segment into a trail. <br />The 104th Street Trail Project is a collaboration between <br />Louisville, Lafayette, and Boulder County, aimed at <br />improving regional trail systems to meet the community's <br />expanding recreational needs. The multi -use trail <br />features a combination of soft surface and concrete with <br />pedestrian crossings at major intersections to improve <br />access and safety. <br />With nearly100,000 users annually on the Coal Creek and <br />Rock Creek trails, this new connection offers commuters <br />and outdoor enthusiasts better access to major job <br />centers, regional transit lines, trails, and open spaces <br />in multiple communities, including the popular Carolyn <br />Holmberg Preserve at Rock Creek Farm. The public <br />is invited to explore and enjoy the new 104th Street Trail <br />connection for day and night use. <br />The cost of this $2.3 million project was split between <br />Louisville, Lafayette, and Boulder County. Grant funding <br />in the amount of $475,000 from CDOT was also used. <br />Page 8 • Summer 2023 <br />
