Project complete

About the Project

The Colorado Department of Transportation, in cooperation with Oldcastle SW Group, completed improvements at the intersection of CO Highway 172 and County Road 318 just south of Ignacio. The project began in September of 2021. After a two-month winter shutdown, work resumed at the end of March and was completed on June 9, 2022. The project consisted of roadway widening, median construction, lighting installation, and pavement markings. The project added a left turn lane, northbound, on CO 172 for vehicles turning onto CR 318. This project greatly enhanced the safety and
functionality of this intersection.
