After the new concrete has been poured, please wait at least four hours to water your lawn.

5/9 : Lowell Blvd. Closure Update
Lowell Blvd. between W. 73rd Ave. and Westminster Pl. will remain closed through the weekend. We hope Lowell may be reopened by next week.
The water main break damaged other utilities adjacent to the water main, and we are working closely with our partner utility agencies as they complete repairs as efficiently as possible.
The water main, which broke on Tuesday, 5/7, has been repaired and water service was restored. We thank our community for their patience.
🚧 Lowell Blvd. is closed between W. 73rd Ave. and Westminster Pl. due to a water main break. Please avoid the area until further notice as crews work to repair the water main and road.
Estelle Nadel was only 7 years old when Nazis invaded her hometown in Poland. Through her book, “The Girl Who Sang”, Nadel details her story of survival and the tragic loss of her parents and siblings. While describing her unimaginable experience, Nadel also crafts a message of hope, a message she lived by that is remembered by the Westminster community.
Nadel was an active resident and regularly attended yoga classes at City Park Fitness Center. Her instructor and classmates remember her as a fun and chatty person, who could hold a conversation on just about anything, from technology to the Kardashians.
Nadel passed away on November 26, 2023. She was 88 years old, just five days shy of her 89th birthday, and only a couple months before her book was published. Nadel’s legacy will live on through “The Girl Who Sang”, which is available at both College Hill (3705 W. 112th Ave.) and Irving Street (7392 Irving St.) libraries for check out. You can also read more about her life and story here: bit.ly/EstelleNadel.
A temporary detour will be in place along Big Dry Creek Trail near City Park from mid-May through June 2024 as the Streambank Restoration Project begins. Crews will be installing new stormwater infrastructure and drainage ponds.

In the meantime, please continue to follow all detour signage. Thank you for your patience during this closure.
Background Info:
In late February, Open Space staff identified that the Big Dry Creek tunnel underpass at Wadsworth Parkway needed to be closed due to about three feet of standing water in the tunnel. A pump that is designed to remove water from the tunnel failed and needed to be repaired. Signage is posted on both sides of the tunnel notifying the public of the closure. Trail users can detour around the tunnel by going north to 100th Avenue or south to Independence Street.
