Project Description: This request is for $500,000 to cover the trail amenities provided in Colorado Springs Utilities’ Monument Creek Stabilization project. This project largely addressed wastewater infrastructure within the creek that was at risk for potential erosion and damage. With this, Utilities provided ramp access to the creek, also providing a recreational amenity, and a trail underpass at Mesa Road for the Pikes Peak Greenway. Trail and trail-related construction far exceeds the $500,000 one-time contribution by PRCS, although an Executive Agreement established that PRCS would contribute to the north ramp for the trail underpass to establish full connectivity for the Pikes Peak Greenway.
