Proby
Parkway- Phase I
Project
Description: This project will implement the City portion
of the Phase I improvements recommended by the South Metro Accessibility
Study. The City portion will design and construct a new expressway
(Milton E. Proby Parkway) between Academy Blvd. and Powers Blvd.
This new expressway will be located just south of Drennan Rd.
between Academy Blvd. and Hancock Expwy., and then will combine
with existing Drennan Rd. as it approaches Powers Blvd. The anticipated
budget for the Phase I portion of Proby Parkway is $53.1 million
in 2008 dollars. The project scope includes preliminary and final
design, permitting, public information and outreach, right-of-way
(ROW) acquisition, roadway construction and construction management.
The
new roadway is named in honor of Milton E. Proby, a local civil
rights leader who passed away in 2006. Reverend Proby was a pastor
at St. John Baptist Church in Colorado Springs for 48 years. Click
