13th and 14th ave is a new protected bikeway project that received People for Bikes 2021 Bike Project of the Year Award. This project fills a critical gap in Denver's bikeway network, connecting one of Denver's highest priority areas for transportation equity to Downtwon Denver. The resulting project provides a safer, affordable alternative to travelling between these areas. 

• Participants in this Walkshop will learn the background on the outreach for this project, design details, including innovative loading zone and ADA parking design, the Denver Wedge intersection design, tactics to reduce crossing distances, temporary material applications. 

• What it took to accommodate the new PBL, including lane reductions and parking removal. 

• This project is also a transit corridor, and participants will learn about efforts to consider bus/bike interactions, and view a concrete floating bus island. • DOTI staff will talk about what has been working well, as well as areas for improvement and lessons learned.
