Expect Delays on Northbound US 85 at CO 7 in Adams Country Through Morning of Friday, Sept. 1

ADAMS COUNTY—Traffic will be restricted to one lane on northbound US Highway 85 at Colorado Highway 7 through 6 a.m. Friday, Sept. 1, for pavement repair work on the bridge deck.

Motorists should prepare for delays. While work is scheduled to take place during off-peak travel times (nights and early mornings), crews found the pavement surface on this stretch of US 85 northbound to be deteriorating rapidly; it needs immediate permanent repairs that will take a longer time to fix.

By Friday morning, work should be completed with both lanes open to traffic.

The work is part of a $10.2 million project to resurface and repair pavement and bridges on US 85 from Interstate 76 to 168th Avenue. Other improvements include guardrail and cable barrier installation, and updating traffic signals, signing, and striping.

These updates will significantly improve travel safety along this corridor.
