The Colorado Department of Transportation, Grand Junction and Mesa County are looking into developing conceptual plans for a possible mobility hub in the Grand Valley.
Such a hub would serve as a focal point for residents and visitors to access multimodal transportation options in a central location.
Options for such a hub could include services such as Greyhound, Bustang, Grand Valley Transit, passenger rail, rideshare connections and a slew of nonmotorized transportation, such as biking, bike parking, scooters, e-bikes and access for walkers.
According to CDOT, all of those things are available in the valley, but they are not all tied together. The study could consider a single hub or a system of them.

Conducting municipal and county business in-person might soon get easier throughout Garfield County.
But one county office in particular will still be limiting person-to-person interactions due to an inexperienced staff.
The Garfield County Clerk’s Office has made various in-person appointments for various transactions since July of 2020, according to County Clerk Jean Alberico.
Alberico said staff are currently working through a soft opening and will officially be allowing walk-in customers from 8:30-11 a.m. and 2-4 p.m. beginning May 17.
“It took us several months to figure out how to efficiently help customers with remote transactions so we need to take some time to get back into working with walk-in customers,” Alberico said. “I had two long- term Motor Vehicle Clerks sell their homes recently and move out of state. The new team members started on May 3rd.”

As one would expect with a gathering of dogs, there was a wide range of canine personalities on display at the Police K9 Challenge last weekend.
Law enforcement from around the region, including Utah and Wyoming, along with their K9 partners, took part in the fun competition at Delta High School.
The K9 competition included obedience, an obstacle course, sniffing for narcotics, speed and bite training.
It was a chance to show off the K9 skills and for handlers to work with the dogs in a different setting.
