Phase 1: Timberline to Strauss Cabin (2024)
This project was completed ahead of schedule thanks to great weather, public awareness of the project and detour routes, and close coordination with our traffic management team. Our Streets and Engineering departments won an award from the American Public Works Association (APWA) for completing this work using innovative tactics to save time and money!

Phase 2: College to Timberline (2025)#
Harmony Road serves as one of Fort Collins' key arterial roads and primary east-west corridors. To maintain the safety and quality of this major road, our crews are repairing concrete infrastructure and resurfacing Harmony's road surface in two phases, continuing with Phase 2 in 2025.
Phase 2 of this project will resurface East Harmony Road between South College Avenue (US 287) and South Timberline Road, beginning in January 2025:
- Concrete maintenance: Our Streets Maintenance Program (SMP) will begin concrete maintenance work in January 2025, lasting for 6-8 weeks and depending on favorable weather. Single lane closures will be used as needed during this work.
- Asphalt resurfacing: This portion of the SMP project will begin in April 2025 and last for 4-6 weeks, pending favorable weather. Multiple lane closures will be used as needed during this work; we expect to have at least one lane of traffic open in each direction at all times.

Recap: Phase 1: Timberline to Strauss Cabin (2024)#
From March 25 - June 7, 2024 repaving and restriping work was completed on East Harmony Road from South Timberline Road to Strauss Cabin Road approaching I-25. To maintain the safety and quality of this stretch of Harmony, crews repaired and replaced the road surface and select parts of concrete infrastructure.
Crews began milling and overlaying Harmony Road with a new surface on April 29, 2024. Work continued through June 7. During that time, construction closed several lanes of traffic at a time to protect workers and motorists.
Typical working hours were Monday through Friday 7 a.m - 7 p.m., however work occurred outside these times or on the weekends to expedite the project.
