13 Month Construction Project in Grand Junction Begins in May

It comes as a shock to no one in Western Colorado that we are talking about a new construction project that is set to kick off in just a few weeks is expected to wrap up in June of 2022. This is the project that will bring improvements to the intersection at Grand Avenue and 1st Street in Grand Junction.

The details were laid out by KKCO, and residents got to see a preview of what the changes will look like at an open house that took place earlier this week set up by the Colorado Department of Transportation.
