Signal to improve crosswalk


The town & the school were behind the request for signalization. The cost for this project was shared by CDOT, Town of Ignacio and the Ignacio School District. Striping of the crosswalk is the final step and the signal is scheduled to be up and running before the end of November. This will be Ignacio’s fourth stoplight.

Construction crews continue to work on the stoplight infrastructure in downtown Ignacio at the intersection of Goddard Avenue and Becker Street. The signal light will improve traffic flow and safety along Ignacio’s main corridor, while also improving the turn onto Becker Street, which leads to the Ignacio High School. The primary reason is heavy foot traffic from students using that intersection to cross from residential neighborhoods over to the school propertyIn the process, ADA compliant ramps and sidewalk extensions have been added
