Turnberry and Suniga Extension Project

• Project typeStreets, Sidewalks and Trails
• Project value$20 million (estimated)
• Project scheduleSummer 2027 (estimated completion)

Following decades of development, northeast Fort Collins can no longer rely on existing transportation infrastructure. The area has long been disconnected from the remainder of our community from a transportation network standpoint. In recent years, the City has heavily invested in large-scale development planning to change that. This project will continue that work, advancing the transportation and alternative modes networks in the northeast Fort Collins quadrant.  

In late 2019, City Engineering staff began work with a consultant to on designs for a proposed expansion of Turnberry Road at Mountain Vista Road, south to Suniga Road and then west to the eastern edge of 1808 East Vine.

As it stands, the project will extend Turnberry Road south (from Mountain Vista Drive to Suniga Road) and extend Suniga Road east (to Lemay Avenue). The planning team is looking to expand the effort with connectivity analysis and further development of the overall concept and design details.

Influences on these proposed improvements include key City plans like the Master Street Plan, Transportation Plan, Active Modes Plan and Strategic Trails Plan.

City Plans

In each respective expansion, this project will include:

Turnberry from Mountain Vista to Suniga

• Dedicated sidewalks and bike lanes
• A traffic circle at Mountain Vista and Turnberry Road featuring pedestrian crosswalks in all four directions

Suniga to Lemay

• Dedicated median, sidewalks and bike lanes
• Proposed added left and right turn lanes to increase safety

Project Impacts

Anticipated future impacts include:

• Traffic Detours
• Lane Shifts
• Bike Traffic Detours
