Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter on Groundhog Day, and we are certainly crossing our fingers that the Pagosa Springs area will see some moisture soon before we officially get into spring.
Because the weather is holding, the construction company chosen for the U.S. 160 reconstruction project is already working on some pre-planning activities.
One of the best ways for our business community to find out about the latest information is to attend the next Cone Zone meeting. This meeting will be held on Thursday, February 27 starting at 6pm at Motel SOCO.
At this meeting, representatives from CDOT will update the public on the potential start date and rollout schedule of the project.
The group will also be updated on parking and transportation options, and marketing and communication efforts. This is also the opportunity for the community to hear your input and suggestions.
As we get down to the wire on the start of the project, businesses also need to find the time to work together and plan for any options in business hours, special offerings to the public or other important logistics that will run in sync with the rollout of the project.
The meetings are open to the public and all interested are encouraged to attend
