3 <br />Longmont to Boulder (LoBo) and IBM Connections. <br />Boulder County has been working with the City of Boulder, CDOT, <br />and the BNSF railroad to complete an approved design for the trail <br />connection. Construction is anticipated in 2015 pending construction <br />of a new railroad bridge by the BNSF. <br />TR <br />UPDATE: The Longmont-to-Boulder Trail is a proposed 12-mile trail <br />connecting the city of Boulder trail system with the city of <br />Longmont trails. Much of the trail as originally proposed has been <br />completed. Three of the more prominent segments yet to be <br />completed are the planned pedestrian underpass at Four Mile <br />Creek Trail, the IBM Connector Trail between Gunbarrel and the <br />City of Boulder Reservoir Trail system and the Twin Lakes Trail <br />Connection within Gunbarrel. The IBM Connector Trail is expected <br />to open to the public by Summer 2017. The Twin Lakes Trail <br />Connection is expected to begin construction in Fall 2017 and be <br />completed in 2018. Boulder County continues to work with the <br />City of Boulder and the BNSF Railway to construct the approved <br />underpass for the Four Mile Creek Trail. <br />http://www.bouldercounty.org/roads/plans/pages/loboibmconne <br />ctor.aspx <br />4 <br />Four Mile Creek Bike/Pedestrian Underpass. Critical multi-use trail <br />connection. Underpass connects the City of Boulder Greenways hard <br />surface Four Mile Creek Trail to the City of Boulder OSMP soft <br />surface Cottonwood Trail. The trail connection is 800 feet long and <br />crosses under two Diagonal Highway underpasses and a railroad <br />crossing. Trail connection requires crossing land that is privately <br />owned and owned by the City of Boulder, Colorado Department of <br />Transportation and Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railroad. The <br />connection is on the Boulder Valley Comprehensive Plan and Boulder <br />County Comprehensive Plan Trails maps. Trail connection is ranked <br />as a "Second Priority Project" by the Boulder County Regional Trail <br />Committee and is a connector into the LOBO trail between <br />Longmont and Boulder, which is ranked as a "First Priority Project" <br />by the Boulder County Regional Trail Committee. <br />TR <br />UPDATE: Phase I, the Four Mile Canyon Creek Bikeway Connection <br />to northbound Diagonal Highway, was completed in May 2010. <br />Boulder County continues to work with the City of Boulder and the <br />BNSF Railway Company to complete an approved design and <br />crossing agreements for the Four Mile Creek Trail underpass. <br />Timing is unknown, but discussions are ongoing. <br />http://www.bouldercounty.org/roads/plans/pages/fourmilecrkbik <br />eway.aspx <br />32 <br />
