Travel Advisory

October 17, 2023 - Northeastern Colorado - Traffic delays expected

Weld County —  The Colorado Department of Transportation will begin a safety improvement project on CO 392 on Oct. 18.

Work will take place north of Greeley on CO 392 between County Road 27 and County Road 51. The project is expected to be complete this December.

Crews will be installing LED flashing stop signs and replacing signal heads, as well as widening the shoulder in some areas. These improvements will benefit the public by providing enhanced safety and mobility for motorists traveling on narrow two-lane highways and also improving traffic flow for motorists.

Starting Oct. 18, traffic impacts will include:

  • Daytime work hours range from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday
  • Vehicles may be reduced to single-lane, alternating traffic intermittently in either direction, throughout the duration of the project
  • Plan ahead and expect delays up to 15-minutes
  • The speed limit will be reduced to 40 mph through the work zone
  • The project is expected to last until December 2023.
