Putting one foot in front of the other will get even easier in Downtown Castle Rock.

Creating a safe and enjoyable experience for those walking to the many unique businesses found downtown is a priority of the Downtown Alliance. To support that goal, three mid-block crosswalks will be constructed. The crosswalks will be located on Wilcox Street, between Third and Fourth streets; Perry Street, between Second and Third streets; and Perry Street, between Third and Fourth streets. They are expected be completed this fall.

“These crosswalks will give pedestrians more options to safely cross the street and enjoy shopping, dining and utilizing services in Downtown Castle Rock,” said Rick Stucy, chairman of the Downtown Development Authority. “Both shoppers and businesses will benefit.”
