New Stop Sign Locations on Pitkin Ave and 8^th Street, Pitkin and 11^th

The City of Glenwood Springs has created a new three-way stop at the intersection of Pitkin Avenue and 8^th Street, across from City Hall and Garfield County Administration. The addition of stop signs on 8^th Street will make it easier for pedestrians to cross, currently a challenge due to the electrical transformer box and parked cars on the southwest side of the intersection.

The City has also installed a new set of stop signs on Pitkin Avenue at 11th Street. The new four-way stop will allow for smoother traffic flow and avoid traffic backing up into Glenwood Springs Elementary.
