All eastbound traffic on I-70 at Exit 116 (Main Glenwood to Aspen exit) will be closed beginning Tuesday, Mar. 22nd at Midnight to Wednesday, Mar. 23rd at 4:00 a.m. This four hour closure is necessary to move a large drill rig to another location. All eastbound traffic will be diverted at Exit 116. Motorists traveling I-70 westbound to Glenwood Springs or Aspen on SH 82 should exit at the West Glenwood exit 114.

I-70 Exit 116 (Main Glenwood to Aspen exit) eastbound on-ramp and off-ramp will be closed Wednesday, Mar. 23rd from 12:00 p.m. (Noon) – 4:00 p.m. Eastbound traffic will be detoured to exit 114 to US 6 to the Grand Avenue Bridge.

“This closure is necessary for paving underneath the Exit 116 interchange. Asphalt paving must be performed during the day to allow for workable asphalt temperatures,” says Tom Newland, CDOT project public information manager
