The town engineer may require improvements to existing streets, due to development impacts to the streets, increased demand on existing improvements, or existing streets serving new developments not meeting current standards. Improvements may include, but are not limited to, intersection improvements, sight distance improvements, street widening, adjustments to horizontal and vertical street geometry, drainage improvements, vehicle and pedestrian lighting, signage, pedestrian routes, acceleration lanes, deceleration lanes, clear zone widening, shoulder improvements, and transit improvements.

Existing streets providing access to a new development must be upgraded to current standards if both of the following conditions are met:

A. The existing street does not meet current Town of Breckenridge engineering standards.

B. The proposed development will increase the average daily traffic (ADT) of the street by twenty five percent (25%) or more.

Existing streets must also be upgraded to current standards if a development changes the street classification or as directed by the town engineer. (Ord. 3, Series 2022)
