The National Park Service, in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration, is considering a project at Mesa Verde National Park that would rehabilitate Mesa Top Loop, Cliff Palace Loop and Sun Temple Loop roads; improve accessibility at adjacent overlooks; improve sidewalks and parking areas; replace the current Visitor and Research Center intersection; and possibly widen the two-way sections of Mesa Top Loop and Sun Temple Loop roads to accommodate a bike lane.
As part of the planning process, the Park Service is initiating a 30-day comment period about the preliminary concepts. The public is encouraged to share observations, concerns and ideas about the information presented in a newsletter at www.parkplanning.nps.gov/MEVE.
The information from this public comment period will be used to refine the concepts, identify issues and ensure the Park Service has the information needed to move forward in the planning process.
Comments must be received no later than Jan. 30 at www.parkplanning.nps.gov/MEVE.
