Hello –

As you may have seen, a set of three traffic signals are now in use in the lower portion of Fourmile Canyon Drive near the 1000 block. We are using three because there is a driveway located in the middle of the two signals on the road. Signal timing will be set as short as safely possible to allow for all travelers, including bikes, to move through the work zone. 

The signals are equipped with an optical sensor that will trigger the light cycle as a vehicle approaches, which will help shorten the overall wait. 

Please DO NOT RUN A RED LIGHT. Not only is this extremely dangerous and could result in a head-on collision, but it also resets all timers and makes everyone wait longer for the next green light. 

The signals are necessary while crews build a retaining wall, which will require the road to be permanently reduced to one lane. 

Thank you for your patience. 

Have a good day.

Andrew
