DENVER, Colo. (KRDO) -- The Denver Broncos have released updated Burnham Yard renderings after extensive community feedback.

The new designs were through a partnership with Denver-based Tryba as the Broncos' master plan architect. The new site layout, features four distinct neighborhood districts: the North End, Village Center, Turntable and South End.

The updated designs include the following, according to Denver Broncos officials:

• Eliminating the 11th Avenue crossing and slowing vehicles to improve pedestrian and bike safety, along with closing additional crossings on event days.
• Distributing event traffic north and south, away from existing residential areas.
• Connecting the neighborhood by extending historic streets through Burnham Yard, including adjusting 8th Avenue into a slower main street feel.
• Removing the freight rail tracks and crossings to reduce conflict and transition those into a new tree-lined trail.
• Increased emphasis on larger parks and green spaces – at least 11-12 football fields of public open space – for families to enjoy every day.

The Broncos say these designs will continue to evolve throughout the planning process. For the latest, click here.
