38 Road Bike and Pedestrian Project design agreement approved

May 28, 2024

38 Road in East Orchard Mesa is about to become safer and more accessible for bikers and pedestrians. At the May 21 administrative public hearing, the Mesa County Commissioners approved a $638,636 agreement for the design of the 38 Road Bike and Pedestrian Project. 

The Fruit and Wine Byway is a popular scenic route for bikers, but the unincorporated Mesa County area of the roadway located on 38 Road currently requires bikers to ride on a narrow shoulder of the road. 

The 38 Road Bike and Pedestrian Project aims to widen the two-lane road to include a grade-separated pedestrian/bike path on the west side of 38 Road and connect it to the existing bike path further south.
