Central Recreation Center Park Site: Coming Soon!!
PROS is beginning the process of Master Planning the new park at the Central Recreation Center.
Watch for upcoming plans and notices. If you have any questions please contact the project
manager at 303.739.7174 or mwoolley@auroragov.org.
Red-Tailed Hawk Park
The City is making improvements to Red-tailed Hawk Park. An additional parking lot is being added per the
Master Plan. More parking means more room for everyone to be able to enjoy all the amenities of the park.
Please contact the Project Manager with any questions regarding the upgrades at 303.739.7174
or mwoolley@auroragov.org.
Sand Creek Park: West Shelter, Restroom and Site Improvements
A new custom shelter, a vault toilet and landscape improvements are almost complete at the west end of Sand Creek Park. Landscaping for the project is wrapping up and will be completed soon. For site & shelter renderings, click here.
Highline Canal Bridge and Trail Repairs
Please note trail and bridge repair is taking place along the Highline Canal Trail at Colfax, just east of Airport.
The connector will be closed. Construction impacting the Highline Canal Trail itself will be minimal.
The majority of the work will be on the connector section.
Expo Park - Pond Maintenance
Please note that certain sidewalks in Expo Park (see noted on the map below) will be closed.
Aurora Water will be doing maintenance work on the ponds - late 2021 - Spring 2022. The ponds
will be drained and sediment removed so ponds can hold the water capacity they are designed
to hold. Westerly Creek will be diverted while the work is being completed.
High Line Canal North Trail Renovations
This priority project will construct nearly two miles of
multi-use trail to close the gap between Colfax Avenue
and recent improvements
constructed north of I-70. Major features include a new trail overpass
to cross I-70
east of Tower Road and a new pedestrian bridge over the High Line
Canal south of Smith Road. An enhanced
at-grade railroad crossing north of
Smith Road will benefit cyclists and pedestrians. Building this priority
section of the trail will complete one of the final gaps in the 71-mile High
Line Canal Trail system.
The project is currently in the design phase with
construction anticipated to begin in Summer 2022.
Trail completion is expected
in Spring 2023. For more information and ways to engage visit the Engage Aurora page here.
Parklane Outdoor Pool Renovations
The community will see numerous improvements to the locker rooms, restrooms, showers and guard office
along with cool new pool deck features including a splash pad with water features.
