Broomfield waterline work to close 136th and Lowell, affecting regional traffic and nearby commerce

A planned waterline replacement in Broomfield will temporarily shut down the intersection of 136th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard from June 22 through June 26, creating a short-term traffic disruption that matters to businesses serving northern Jefferson County as well as customers and workers traveling between Broomfield, Westminster and nearby Jeffco communities. The city says the full closure is needed to complete utility work and related paving, with detours posted along surrounding roads during the project window.

Why this is relevant to businesses in Jefferson County:

  • The closure affects a key north metro corridor used by customers, employees and service vehicles traveling between Jefferson County communities and Broomfield.
  • Retailers, restaurants and service businesses near the corridor may see shifts in traffic patterns, delivery timing and customer access during the June 22-26 closure.
  • The project is scheduled during summer break and combines paving with the utility work, showing an effort to limit longer or repeated disruptions for the regional business community.
