The City of Fort Collins is studying ways to make travel safer and more comfortable along several streets in northwest Fort Collins. In late June, our team talked with people around the city about which streets should be improved first. Based on what we heard, and on past studies and crash data, we’ve narrowed it down to four key street corridors in northwest Fort Collins. We have an interactive map designed to capture feedback about safety issues you notice while walking, biking, taking transit or driving in Northwest Fort Collins: the Safety Issues Map Survey.

We’re halfway through the July Shift Your Ride Challenge, and the numbers are already adding up. So far, participants have logged more than 250 trips and covered over 1,500 miles using active and sustainable transportation here in Fort Collins, Colorado.

There’s still time to join in. Log your sustainable trips throughout July for a chance to win a $100 gift card. All modes count: bike, walk, bus, carpool, vanpool, e-scooter, telework or EV.

You can log up to four trips per day from July 1-31. This is a solo challenge, and everyone who logs at least one trip will be entered into a random drawing to win.

Join us 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 14 for a special Open Streets event on Lady Moon Drive (from Le Fever Drive to Shallow Pond Drive)! This one-mile route will come alive with activities, vendors and community fun, all in a car-free environment.

We’re still looking for community partners to help make this year’s event a success:

• Vendor registration is open now through Aug. 30 at 5 p.m.
• Volunteer sign-up is open, and we want you to be part of the magic behind the scenes
• Sponsorship opportunities are available to support an event that brings neighbors together

Find all the details, registration links, and ways to get involved on the Open Streets webpage.

Let’s make the 10-year celebration one to remember!
