  • Word on the streets of Denver—spring is here, but Mother Nature keeps us on our toes. I’m Morgan Riley, bringing you today’s local news with stories that impact our neighbors, from city projects to stories of resilience and renewal.

    This week, Denver drivers will want to pay special attention. The Colorado Department of Transportation has launched a major resurfacing project on I-25, covering a five-mile stretch from Alameda to 44th Avenue. Crews are working overnight to lay new pavement, repair aging expansion joints, and install new signs and barriers—especially along sections bordering the South Platte River. The aim? Smoother commutes, improved safety, and roads that’ll last longer, reducing the need for those last-minute pothole repairs we all know too well. The project runs through January, and while the final payoff will be worth it, plan for some nightly lane closures in the months ahead.

    In the courts, a Denver man’s years-long legal battle for the return of $3,000 allegedly still held by the city advanced another step. The outcome could set a precedent for citizens seeking to recover small amounts from municipal agencies. It’s a reminder of the ways everyday folks shape the system just by speaking up.

    On a somber note, a Denver man has pled guilty to second-degree murder in the tragic death of a 14-year-old boy. The case has gripped the city and spotlights ongoing efforts to support youth and strengthen community trust.

    Shifting gears, let’s talk community change-makers. Word on the streets is that “Happy Day Plants,” a local business dedicated to workplace inclusion, is putting Denver on the map for progressive employment practices. By hiring workers of all abilities and building a supportive, joyful work environment, they remind us that when we nurture every neighbor’s potential, the whole city blooms.

    Now, about that weather—after a late-season snowstorm grazed the region last week, leaving just half an inch of accumulation at Denver International Airport, sunshine has returned. Expect pleasant temperatures in the low 60s as we head into the weekend. It’s perfect timing for some fresh air at Wash Park or a stroll down Larimer Square.

    Looking ahead, the Denver Arts Festival kicks off this Friday, celebrating both established and emerging creatives across painting, sculpture, and more. And Broncos fans, keep your eyes on the upcoming NFL draft—there’s speculation our team might be scouting a star wide receiver in the third round.

    As always, Denver remains a city in motion—honoring its storied past while forging new paths in innovation, inclusion, and community spirit. Whether you’re navigating construction, contributing to change, or simply soaking up the sun after a late snow, you’re part of the Mile High story.
