Speed
Dips, Chicaines Or Offset Intersections Considered For Oxford Road
By Mary Wolbach Lopert
Thursday evening, Sept. 9 saw staff from the Boulder County
Department of Transportation at Niwot High School seeking input from residents
who live along Oxford Road between 95th Street and Highway 287. The
road is due to be paved either in late fall 1999 or early spring 2000.

Speed Dips - This type of speed mitigation is already
in place on Monarch Road west of 79th Street as a test project.
Chicaine - This concept puts a curve in the road
to break up speeding. There are no chicaines in Boulder County at this
time.
Offset Intersection - Similar to the intersection
at Cherryvale Road between Baseline and Arapahoe in Boulder, this design
also would have two or three stop signs in the mile and a quarter roadway.

The
Men And Women From Glad
By Mary Wolbach Lopert
Everyone knows that there are many uses for duct tape
that don’t involve duct work. It can piece eye glasses together; it makes
a fine substitute for stitches and a trip to the ER; and its first cousin,
electrical tape, can be wrapped around the heads and ears of Rugby players
for protection during a scrum. I even observed one inventive snowboarder
who taped his sack lunch to the front of his board. He not only saved himself
the expense of renting a locker but was also assured of proper refrigeration.

Concerned With The Safety
And Future Of Our Children
By Ann Barnsley
When
Ron and Kathie Braun moved to Niwot five years ago from New York, their
twins Mark and Kim were entering high school. "At the time I realized there
was not a career room at the high school," Kathie said. "We as parents
should be planting seeds for our children’s college education even as freshmen
[in high school]. We need a place to guide and direct students to resource
material." That place turned out to be the Future Center.
