Next phase of the Garfield-Harrison Project begins in April

LOVELAND, Colo. – March 21, 2024 – The City’s Stormwater Engineering division, in partnership with Connell Resources, will resume construction on the Garfield-Harrison project in April, weather permitting. Phase 2c is expected to be completed in Fall 2024.

Phase 2c will begin along Sheridan Avenue north of 4th Street. The project will entail:

• Street milling on March 25. Street milling is a process used in road construction and maintenance to remove the top layer of an existing pavement surface.
• A large diameter storm sewer pipe will be installed up to 5th Street and then east to Roosevelt Avenue, requiring excavation that will require a full road closure. Adding a waterline on 5th Street between Franklin and Roosevelt Avenues.

Traffic Impacts

Through traffic on Sheridan Avenue and 5th Street will be closed from April 1 until the end of summer 2024. During construction, local access will always be maintained. Residents will experience heavy construction noise and disruptions near their homes for approximately two months. Typical working hours will be Monday through Friday from approximately 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Night and weekend work will be occasional and announced in advance.

About the Project

The Garfield-Harrison Project is a large-scale master planned stormwater project that began in January 2022. The four-phase project is expected to be completed by 2025. The project addresses the multiple drainage problems caused by aging infrastructure in the west part of downtown Loveland. Partnering with the City’s Water and Wastewater divisions, Street Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program and Stormwater Engineering, the project will include new waterline, sanitary sewer, street resurfacing, and various concrete repairs that will improve ADA accessibility.
