Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 12th of June.
Good morning, Denver.
🎭 Culture
Tomorrow, Englewood will launch a free shuttle bus for Second Saturday Art Walk, a monthly event providing gallery visits along a loop from Belleview Ave to W.
Floyd Ave — the 36-seat bus runs from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. with seven scheduled stops to boost local gallery traffic.
🏛️ Government
The Colorado Department of Transportation announced closures at the westbound C-470 off-ramp to Santa Fe Drive and the southbound exit to the eastbound C-470 flyover until Friday, June 19.
Drivers must use detours along Wadsworth Boulevard and Santa Fe Drive — ensuring safe travel — as concrete sets for repairs.
Colorado regulators largely rejected Xcel Energy's $567 million gas infrastructure spending plan last week — approving only a $23 million pipeline replacement near Nederland—as state policies favor a shift to electric heating.
Xcel said it will continue investing in its safe gas system while planning for increased electrification.
Aurora fire officials announced residents may buy and use legal fireworks from June 15 to July 4 amid drought and Stage 1 water restrictions.
Officials say legal fireworks are those that stay on the ground (fireworks that explode are not allowed) and advise careful use.
🏥 Health
Health officials warn residents to steer clear of lakes, ponds and reservoirs that may have harmful algae blooms — which can release toxins harmful to people, pets and wildlife.
They urge checking posted advisories before entering any water that looks like thick pea soup.
