This phase of the project will last 6-8 weeks.Large trucks will exit and enter the site along North Shields Street (to the south of the river), utilizing Shields Street north to Willox Lane as the haul route.
Starting Monday, the Poudre Trail will be closed from Taft Hill Road to Lee Martinez Park until June 1. Visit https://www.fcgov.com/west-vine-outfall for detour information and updates.
