Challenge
The intersection of Peakview and Peoria in the City of Centennial had many concerns: drivers and pedestrians had difficulty crossing, the pavement was damaged from heavy trucks, and traffic had increased due to commercial and industrial development.
Solution
The SEH team designed a roundabout that allowed vehicle traffic, including industrial semi-trucks, and pedestrians to safely travel through the intersection. The project team also provided water quality swales to help protect the sensitive Cherry Creek basin.
