Broomfield
has officially changed the name of 128th Avenue to East
Midway Boulevard, effective today at 10 a.m. with the unveiling of
the new signs in a brief ceremony at East Midway and Hazel Street
just east of Lowell.
Crews from the
city’s Street Operations Division replaced 12 aluminum signs at a
cost of $292, and eight luminary panels at a cost of $1,097.
Completion date is Thursday, May 4 (today).
The name
change, requested by Linda Reynolds,
councilmember from Ward 5, and endorsed by the City Council, now
makes the Midway moniker complete as an existing east-west street
through Broomfield, unifying the neighborhoods along its path from
Zuni on the east all the way to Duette Way on the west.
