Miramonte Multimodal Safety Study

The Miramonte Multimodal Safety Study is a comprehensive evaluation of a 2-mile stretch designed to improve safety and accessibility for people walking, biking, rolling and driving. Your input will be used to prioritize specific safety strategies and help the City and County of Broomfield (CCOB) secure grant funding for future construction.

Project Overview

This study was initiated because Miramonte Boulevard serves as a critical link between schools, parks and trails, yet faces significant safety challenges. Some segments carry higher vehicle volumes—up to 9,000 vehicles per day—others meet traffic-calming criteria due to elevated speeds or have documented crashes., This effort is underway to proactively address safety, gather neighborhood input and guide future investments in the corridor.

Project Goals

• Identify Safety Concerns: Pinpoint specific risks for all modes of travel
• Address Crash Patterns: Evaluate high-risk crash locations and identify countermeasures to increase safety
• Improve Accessibility: Identify necessary ADA upgrades
• Develop Recommendations: Identify and prioritize feasible upgrades to enhance safety and corridor functionality for all modes
• Implementation Readiness: Create a prioritized list of projects for implementation and to strengthen Broomfield’s applications for outside funding opportunities

Study Area

The study covers approximately 2.2 miles of Miramonte Boulevard between 10th Avenue and Main Street. This includes the segments from Main Street to Kohl Street, Kohl Street to US 287 and the areas extending west of US 287 to Oak Circle.

The following segmentations have been identified as unique areas based on land use: (1) Main Street to Kohl Street, 0.7 mi; (2) Kohl Street to US 287, 0.4 mi; (3) US 287 to Oak Circle, 0.6 mi; (4) Oak Circle to US 287, 0.5 mi

Public Engagement

Phase One Engagement - Complete

Phase One engagement focused on understanding existing safety concerns, travel patterns and community priorities along the Miramonte corridor. The project team held three pop-up events at Broomfield High School, the Big Broomfield Playdate, and National Night Out, and organized a Walkshop along the full study corridor. The online community survey received nearly 300 responses, and more than 100 pins were added to the interactive map identifying locations of concern and opportunities for improvement. This input will help inform the development and evaluation of multimodal safety improvements.

Stay tuned for Phase Two public outreach this fall, when the community will have an opportunity to review preliminary concepts and provide additional feedback.
