COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Ames Construction will close one lane in each direction on Milton E. Proby Parkway near the intersection of Academy Boulevard and Drennan Road from 8 p.m. Sunday until 6 a.m. Monday for construction on the parkway project.
The Pikes Peak Transportation Authority is funding the $55.4 million Milton E. Proby Parkway project, which is scheduled to be completed October 2011.
The PPRTA was formed when voters in Colorado Springs, Manitou Springs, Green Mountain Falls and El Paso County approved a one percent sales tax in November of 2004 to address infrastructure and transit needs in the region. The tax revenue is divided into three categories: 55 percent capital improvements, 35 percent maintenance, and 10 percent transit. The capital portion of the tax should sunset in 10 years.
