Due to ongoing dry conditions and prevailing high winds, Fire Marshal Colorado Cordova of the Los Alamos Fire Department (LAFD) has elevated fire restrictions to Stage 2, effective May 28, 2026 within the boundaries of Los Alamos County to safeguard public health and safety, as well as protect lands, structures, natural and historical artifacts.

There have been all too many news stories of vehicles driving into pedestrian areas. As a stop-gap measure, we installed temporary, concrete road construction barriers along Trinity Drive during the 2025 summer concert season. In order to maintain this safety barrier for 2026, the concrete barriers returned and were painted green to at least reduce the aesthetic distraction. The goal of this project is to design and build the permanent barrier solution that complements the park by the 2027 summer concert season.

We have worked with Groundworks Studio to develop three preliminary concepts of how we can provide a safety barrier to keep vehicles from entering Ashley Pond Park from Trinity Drive. We invite you to review the three options and provide input on your preferred style and reason why. We are gathering public input through June 2026 (Closing date to be determined).
