Wadsworth’s Wild New Intersections | Denver News

Wheat Ridge just installed futuristic Continuous Flow Intersections on Wadsworth Boulevard — a $10M, 20-year project designed to slash traffic jams and accidents. These clever CFIs let left-turning cars zip past oncoming traffic, avoiding red lights entirely, while right-turners must stay alert. Early results? Only one crash — during a power outage.
