Crews have completed paving a gravel parking lot located in North Cheyenne Cañon Park. The number of parking spaces increased from 75 non-designated spaces to 92 designated spaces, plus the addition of concrete curb and gutter (which will help prolong the life of the pavement), and accessible parking spaces.
Visitors can access the improved lot starting Wednesday, June 2. The lot is located uphill of Helen Hunt Falls at the intersection of North Cheyenne Canyon Road, High Drive and Gold Camp Road.
The project was a recommendation of the North Cheyenne Cañon master plan.
Gold Camp Road is open. North Cheyenne Canyon Road remains closed on weekdays while additional parking improvements are completed within North Cheyenne Cañon Park. More information on those improvements is outlined below.

Additional parking improvement projects in the park
The daily weekday closure of North Cheyenne Canyon Road, from the Starsmore Visitor & Nature Center to Helen Hunt Falls within North Cheyenne Cañon Park, is extended through June 18, weather and construction dependent. From Monday-Friday, vehicles are not permitted on the road, however, trails will remain open to non-motorized recreational use. The road will open to vehicles on weekends. The extended closure will allow for the completion of additional parking improvements.
"Thank you for your continued patience as we work to improve the parking offerings for people of all abilities within North Cheyenne Cañon Park," said David Deitemeyer, senior landscape architect. "While we didn't initially plan to do all of these improvements at once, the timing worked out in a way that makes this the safest, most efficient and most cost effective manner to carry out these much-needed improvements, and your park experience will benefit in the long run."
