DENVER (KDVR) -- Drivers in north Denver, get ready. Leaders with the city and county of Denver broke ground on a big improvement project Friday that will take some time to complete.

The area between 47th and 52nd avenues in the Globeville neighborhood is set to be revitalized through the Washington Street Corridor project, thanks to the help of Denver voters.

"Today, we are celebrating decades worth of community informed improvements on the future of Washington Street which is one of the main arteries through Globeville. The community has been asking for decades for investment in infrastructure in sidewalks, and pedestrian friendly options so they can enjoy their community. And now we're here to deliver on that promise," said District 9 City Council Member Darrell Watson.
