DENVER (CBS4)– Health hazards and public right-of-way access are some of the reasons that a homeless camp in the Sand Creek Area is being removed. People are living in the camp near Interstate 270 and Interstate 70 near Northfield in Denver.
Denver Public Health & Environment officials are concerned about the public and environmental health risks due to litter, human waste and other biohazards. Crews arrived in the area near I-270, I-70, Quebec and Sand Creek Drive near 49th and 47th Avenue on Wednesday morning.
