Proposed sidewalk connection
The City and County of Denver’s 35th/36th Pedestrian Bridge Project will provide a new connection over the railroad tracks between the River North, Curtis Park and Cole neighborhoods and the future Regional Transportation District (RTD) 38th/Blake commuter rail station on the East Rail Line. The new bridge is planned to be completed in conjunction with the opening of RTD’s East Rail Line in 2016.
RTD’s 41st/Fox Station Pedestrian Bridge (currently under construction on the Gold Line) provides a good visual reference of what the span of the City’s 35th/36th Pedestrian Bridge will look like.
The 35th/36th Pedestrian Bridge project proposes a Wazee Street confi guration that functions with the bridge landing while not precluding future reconfi guration of the roadway. The cross- section includes two 8’ attached sidewalks,two 12’ travel lanes (one
