CDOT Opens Glenwood Canyon Bike Path for Spring

GARFIELD & EAGLE COUNTIES—CDOT today opened the Glenwood Canyon bike path after repairing and sweeping the trail for pedestrians and cyclists.

"We recognize that with the low snowfall we had this year that many people utilized the path throughout winter," said CDOT Maintenance Supervisor Cary Griffin. "Now that our crews have completed repairs and removed rocks that came down on the path, over the winter, we are more confident in the safety of folks using the path."

Crews monitor the path daily, and will decide whether to keep the path open in the event of inclement weather or as run off begins. Cyclists and pedestrians who want to use the path should frequently check COtrip.org, under the "Travel Alerts Tab/Statewide Alerts" tab. To maintain pathway safety, CDOT reminds cyclists and pedestrians to please obey all warning and closure signs. We appreciate your cooperation.
