Denver Metro Guardrail Project

About the Project:

Work will take place along six different roadways; US Highway 285, Interstate Highway 25, US Highway 6, Interstate Highway 76, Colorado Highway 74, and Colorado Highway 86. The project will happen in 10 different phases.

Project Benefits

• The project will help prevent vehicles from running off the road and going down steep embankments, or veering off the roadway into oncoming traffic
• Guardrails have many important benefits including safety and preventing far more serious crashes

Work Schedule:

• Work hours are 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Sunday through Thursday
• Work will last until the end of July

Traffic Impacts:

Motorists can expect the following impacts during the period of construction:

• Work site-dependent:
  • Vehicles could be reduced to a single-lane with intermittent alternating traffic in either direction
  • There will be up to 15-minute delays anticipated
• Refer to COtrip.org for real-time travel conditions and road closures
