Timnath Parkway. - Buss Grove Rd. to Main St. (CR5)

Construction continues on the Timnath Parkway - Buss Grove Rd. to Main St. (CR 5) Project following the successful opening of the new roundabout and restoration of two-way traffic.

Traffic Updates

• Intermittent lane closures, traffic shifts and flagging operations will continue as needed throughout construction.
• Utility pole removal is anticipated Thursday, Nov. 19, and Friday, Nov. 20. Temporary traffic stops and lane shifts may be necessary as crews remove overhead utility lines and poles near the roundabout.
• As part of the separate Thornton Waterline Project, Colorado Blvd. is scheduled to remain fully closed north of Wildwing Dr. through Nov. 26. Motorists should plan alternate routes and allow additional travel time.

Remaining Construction Activities

Crews will continue utility relocations, sidewalk improvements, final grading, signage installation, landscaping and other remaining construction activities.

Sidewalks and pedestrian pathways will remain closed where construction is ongoing and will reopen once the remaining work is completed and safe access can be provided.

Anticipated Project Completion

Major roadway improvements are expected to be substantially complete by the end of 2026, with remaining lighting, signage and landscaping work continuing into 2027.

Keeping You Informed

As the project progresses toward completion, website updates will be provided as significant construction activities or traffic changes occur. Please check back for the latest project information.

Benefits of Roundabouts

The roundabout is designed to enhance safety, improve traffic flow and strengthen connections throughout the community.

Key benefits include:

• Improved Safety: Reduces the number of potential conflict points between vehicles and lowers the risk of severe crashes compared with traditional intersections.
• Slower, Safer Speeds: Encourages motorists to slow down when entering and navigating the roundabout, helping create a safer environment for all roadway users.
• Efficient Traffic Flow: Keeps vehicles moving through the intersection, reducing unnecessary stops, delays and congestion.
• Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety: Provides designated crossing opportunities and encourages reduced vehicle speeds, improving safety once these facilities are completed and open for use.
• Enhanced Connectivity: Improves connections[KM1] throughout the community, providing better access to local businesses, neighborhoods and surrounding areas.

Construction schedules are subject to change due to weather, utility coordination or other unforeseen conditions. Motorists are encouraged to follow posted signage and use caution when traveling through the construction area.

Following unanticipated utility delays, work continues on the CR 5/Main Street and Buss Grove Road improvements.

The southbound lane reopened on Oct. 19, with work continuing in that area through Nov. 6. Additional work will continue as crews move through the remaining project items.

Weather and construction delays may impact the schedule. Please drive safely and follow posted traffic control measures.

Construction on the Timnath Pkwy. North connection is moving into the next phase, requiring a temporary closure to complete roadway improvements and prepare the area for final paving.

Beginning Sept. 28, the intersection of Buss Grove Rd. and CR 5 will be closed to all through traffic. The closure is anticipated to remain in place through Oct. 9, weather and construction conditions permitting. A signed detour route will be provided for motorists.

Following completion of this phase, the intersection is expected to reopen to traffic on a gravel surface. Final paving operations are currently scheduled for Oct. 11-16, after which the roadway will be opened in its final condition, pending weather or construction delays.

This closure is a necessary step toward completing the intersection improvements and advancing the overall project. Residents and motorists are encouraged to plan ahead and allow additional travel time while work is underway.

Construction is now underway on the Timnath Parkway North Connection Project, a key transportation improvement that will extend Timnath Pkwy. North from the existing Buss Grove Rd. roundabout and connect it to Main St. (LCR 5). The project was approved to move into construction after Town Council awarded the construction contract at its June 23, 2026 meeting. The project is identified as a near-term priority in the Town's Transportation Master Plan and will help complete a critical connection within Timnath's roadway network.

The project includes construction of a new two-lane roadway connection, single-lane roundabout, landscaped median, shared-use path, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, and other corridor enhancements. These improvements are designed to improve safety, mobility and multimodal connectivity while supporting future growth and improving access to Main Street Timnath. When complete, the project will improve regional transportation connections, enhance access for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists, and establish. Construction is anticipated to continue through Spring 2027.

Traffic Impacts and Road Closure

As part of the project, the section of Buss Grove Road between Timnath Parkway and Main Street (LCR 5) will remain closed to traffic through approximately November 2026 while construction is completed. Motorists should plan ahead and follow posted detour routes and traffic control measures in the area. All construction schedules are subject to change. Project timelines may be affected by weather, material availability and other unforeseen conditions. The Town will provide relevant updates as project conditions and schedules evolve.
