Summary

Hampden Avenue (U.S. 285) is a critical element of the Colorado and the Denver metro area transportation network. The corridor has a long history of moving people and goods through and between the cities of Sheridan, Englewood, Cherry Hills Village and Denver, and provides essential commercial and regional access to the C470 and I-25 corridors.

The project also aimed to preserve community character and seek ways to enhance community amenities and/or placemaking.
