About

The Denver Regional Council of Governments (DRCOG), in partnership with Adams County, is leading the Pecos Corridor Study to address safety concerns and transportation choices —whether driving, riding transit, walking, biking, or scooting— for the surrounding community. The 12-month study will develop a cohesive, community-informed vision and implementation plan for Pecos Street over the next 20 years, reflecting the needs, values and priorities of those who live, work and travel along the corridor.

The desired goals of the study include:

• Identifying major safety, mobility and connectivity issues that impact the daily lives of those who live, work, and travel along Pecos Street between West 62nd Parkway and 84th Avenue—especially for those facing barriers to access.

• Developing and evaluating recommendations to address the high-priority transportation issues identified by the community and the technical analysis.

• Developing a community-informed, implementation-focused corridor plan that Adams County can use to advance the preferred alternative and associated projects and secure funding.

• Fostering meaningful, trust-based relationships between residents, commuters, Adams County, DRCOG and key community partners.

The Pecos Corridor Study Area is a key connection in Southwest Adams County — from 62nd Parkway (Pecos Junction Station) to 84th Avenue —and includes a half mile on either side of the corridor. This area connects residents to key destinations and services and is central to improving mobility in the region.
