Brainard Lake Re-opens Following Road Project
WARD, Colo. (CBS4) -- Traffic was allowed to access the Brainard Lake Recreation Area Friday following a three-and-a-half-month road project.
The 2.5-mile stretch of road was closed March 12th.
Crews worked dawn to dusk seven days a week to reconstruct and widen the road from 22 feet to 27 feet, providing additional shoulder on each side for bicyclists and pedestrians.
Projected cost for the project was $3.5 million.
