Is CO 105 (Perry Park Road) your north/south route for recreation or work? You’ll want to know how the Colorado Department of Transportation and Douglas County are partnering to improve safety.
Later this year, CDOT and Douglas County will begin a safety project along 18 miles of CO 105 between the Douglas/El Paso County Line and Wolfensberger Road. The project will include paved shoulder widening, guardrail installation at the curves near Red Rock Drive, and installation of rumble stripes along the middle and sides of the road that are designed to alert drivers when they are tracking outside of the travel lane.
The $2.1 million project is being funded by a Federal Highway Safety Improvement Program grant, with a 10% funding match from Douglas County.
