Pothole repair work on US 6 requires closing lanes, I-25 off-ramps

March 3, 2014 - Metro Denver Colorado/CDOT Region 1 - Both the northbound and southbound I-25 off-ramps to westbound US 6 will close Tuesday night at 10 p.m. and remain closed until 5:30 a.m. Wednesday morning so crews can repair potholes between the Platte River and Federal Boulevard.

During the overnight closure of these ramps, motorists will need to exit at 8^th Avenue.

There will be additional lane closures throughout the US 6 corridor between I-25 and Knox Court Tuesday through Thursday nights for additional pothole repair work. There will be double left lane closures in the eastbound direction and a right lane closure in the westbound direction beginning at 10 p.m. each night. All lanes are scheduled to reopen by 5:30 a.m. the following morning.

The $98 million US 6 Bridges Design-Build Project will replace six obsolete bridges on US 6 between Knox Court and I-25, improve traffic movements in the I-25 and US 6 interchange and enhance driver safety by eliminating several traffic weave movements along US 6 between Federal Boulevard and I-25. Substantial project completion is planned for August 2015.
