Utilized heavily by the agricultural industry, this four-mile section of Weld County Road (WCR) 66 from U.S. 85 to WCR 47 will become a four-lane concrete roadway, complete with 10-foot shoulders — 8 feet paved, 2 feet gravel. The project is expected to begin this fall and be complete by the end of 2028.

Where is this happening?
