Northbound I-25 On-/Off-Ramps Closed at Arapahoe Next Week

GREENWOOD VILLAGE—The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) will close the northbound Interstate 25 on and off-ramps at Arapahoe Road on Monday, June 13, Tuesday, June 14, and Wednesday, June 15.

Both ramps will be closed from 10 p.m. - 5:30 a.m.

Beginning at 8 p.m. on Monday, motorists will experience a continuous lane reduction on northbound I-25, beginning at the C-470/E-470 Interchange. The traffic lanes will continue to be reduced until 11 p.m., when I-25 will be reduced to one lane through the Arapahoe Road Interchange. Drivers should be prepared for a new traffic pattern on northbound I-25 by 5:30 Tuesday morning, when all lanes reopen.

Starting at 8 p.m. on Tuesday and Wednesday, double right lane restrictions on northbound I-25 will be required. All lanes will reopen at 5:30 each morning. These closures will allow the highway to be paved, restriped and a barrier to be set, as I-25 traffic is shifted west in preparation for the next phase of construction.

Traffic on southbound I-25 will not be impacted.

The project team reminds motorists to allow extra time for your commute, adhere to speed reductions on I-25 and Arapahoe Road and avoid distractions. Alternate routes are advised. Watch for weekly construction update emails with the most up-to-date information regarding traffic impacts.

Project Information: This $66 million Responsible Acceleration of Maintenance (RAMP) Project includes building an additional lane along westbound Arapahoe Road from Yosemite Street to Greenwood Plaza Boulevard, providing three left turn lanes from the I-25 off-ramps, realigning the frontage road in the northeast quadrant of the interchange, building noise walls near the Arapahoe Road and Yosemite Street intersection and widening Yosemite Street from Yosemite Circle on the north to Xanthia Street on the south. This project is designed to reduce congestion and improve traffic operations and safety. Substantial completion is slated for summer 2018.

Due to ongoing construction activity in this area and nighttime travel impacts, alternative transportation modes are encouraged.
