The Manitou Avenue, Park Avenue to Serpentine (MAPS) project is nearing completion. Crews are finishing curbs and sidewalks on the west end of Manitou Avenue.
The major capital improvement project has been upgrading and undergrounding utilities, installing a new storm-drain system, improving the roadway grades, installing a new 10-foot-wide multi-use trail, improving pedestrian safety and installing sidewalks and ramps that comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The $4 million project is 82 percent federally funded and 18 percent funded by Pikes Peak Rural Transportation Authority. Wildcat Construction is the primary contractor.
