Loveland - The Colorado Department of Transportation progresses on construction of the second phase of the Great Western Railroad bridge over I-25, between Colorado Highway 402 and US Highway 34. The second portion of the new bridge is currently being constructed adjacent to the final location and will be rolled into place, July 15-19.
