A redition of the Cortez median project released in May. Cortez officials unveiled their latest plans for the new medians to downtown business owners and members of the public this week.

Downtown Cortez will look different this fall when construction begins on new medians on Main Street. Cortez City Manager Shane Hale and Cortez Public Works Director Phil Johnson joined KSJD’s Austin Cope on Morning Edition for more details about the project. 

Austin Cope is a former Morning Edition host for KSJD and now produces work on a freelance basis for the station. He grew up in Cortez and hosted a show on KSJD when he was 10 years old. After graduating from Montezuma-Cortez High School in 2010, he lived in Belgium, Ohio, Spain, northern Wyoming, and Himachal Pradesh, India before returning to the Cortez area. He has a degree in Politics from Oberlin College in Ohio.
