Officials Address Resident Frustrations Over Construction on Castle Pines Parkway
After a viewer emailed Denver7 regarding construction on Castle Pines Parkway, Denver7's DougCo Reporter Tyler Melito took those frustrations to the city's engineer to learn more about the project.
Viewer Concerns
Marge Golden emailed Denver7 about her difficulties with the ongoing construction, which is located right next to her back porch. She expressed concerns about:
- Noise: "It's the noise... I can't sit on my patio."
- Dust: The construction has created a significant amount of dust.
- Discomfort: The project has made it challenging for Golden, who had a stroke a few years ago, to maintain her usual routine and comfort inside her home.
Project Details
The construction is part of a larger, long-term initiative by the City of Castle Pines to improve several main roads in the city.
Impact on Golden
Golden has lived in Castle Pines for over a decade. She lives alone with her dog, Belle, and their life has been significantly impacted:
- Exercise Routine: They use a mini-treadmill and elliptical but the construction noise has made outdoor exercise difficult.
- Comfort at Home: The constant beeping, loud noises, and dust have affected Golden's ability to relax and be comfortable inside her home.
