from City Cast Denver · host City Cast
Construction on the Bus Rapid Transit project on Colfax has officially moved into Aurora, and the end is in sight! So, we are looking ahead to the BRT line planned for Federal Boulevard, where the recent news of the proposed redevelopment of the Asia Center strip mall sparked a wave of concerns about, among other things, the impact of construction on small businesses. Host Bree Davies and producer Paul Karolyi talk about how the community outreach is going on Federal, then dig into the data showing the effects of construction on Colfax businesses so far. Plus, a listener comment about Little Man Ice Cream’s big news. Paul mentioned the Colorado Boulevard BRT open house planned for May 13 at Clayton Early Learning Center and referenced this Denver7 report on the Colfax BRT project breaking ground in Aurora. Bree mentioned Katrina Nguyen’s post about the Asia Center redesign renderings and the Federal Boulevard BRT pop-up at Mi Casa Resource Center on May 9.
