As part of Xcel's Fire Mitigation Plan, they are needing to upgrade, swap, or alter power poles throughout town. They will give us advance notice so that we in turn can inform you. This one should be completed by the end of the week. Work is occurring in front of 103 Cardinal Way. Times of construction are between 830am & 330pm. If it necessitates a closure, the closure will only be around 10 minutes. Not all work requires closures. Please allow extra time, and we will keep you posted as they progress around town. Thank you! #xcel #powerpoles #replacement #firemitigation #bepatient #townofparachute

We have heard the concerns that you all have about the main bridge in town so we reached out to CDOT to get some additional information. The last inspection was done in March, 2024. However, due to the amount of bridges that they oversee (nearly 3,500), the report hasn't been filed yet. We will share that report with you all once it is published. The most recent inspection filed was from 4/6/22. This inspection stated that the bridge was considered in "Fair" condition which is middle of the road for bridge ratings. It means the 2022 inspection saw some potholes, chipping, and other minor deficiencies but overall the bridge was rated as a functional asset. Here is a link to their web page that speaks on the bridge program. https://www.codot.gov/programs/bridge/bridge-structure-inspection We have also included some Questions and Answers from CDOT with some information on how they inspect bridges, how often, and what the rating scale is. It is included in the graphic below, or you can click on this link: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:US:b86e38a2-47ab-4575-aecb-027a268ff3c3 Our hope is that this will help educate everyone on the process and the safety measures that CDOT follows, not just here in Parachute, but across the state. Thank you! #CDOT #bridges #safety #inspection #structure #townofparachute
