Street Design & Construction Standards

The City of Fort Collins, in collaboration with the City of Loveland and Larimer County, have created and adopted common street standards titled "Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards." These Standards apply to the design and construction of new and reconstructed streets within the two cities and within the defined Growth Management Areas for Fort Collins and Loveland that lie within unincorporated Larimer County. The revised document shown on this site replaced the entire original document and went into effect on October 1, 2002.

Copies of the Standards are available from the following sources:

  • Access from this Web site
  • Purchase printed copies at designated copy centers (approx. $60 plus tax without binder):
    • Kinko's, 130 West Olive Street in Fort Collins, Phone No. (970) 221-2679
    • Kinko's, 2520 North Lincoln Avenue in Loveland, Phone No. (970) 669-8778

      Phone in your order and allow 24 hours for the production.

  • Purchase CD's (approx. $15) from the Engineering departments of Fort Collins and Loveland (CD's also include AutoCAD version 2000 files for many of the figures and drawings)
