CO 144 Bridge & Road Repairs | Log Lane Village to Weldona

About the Project:

The Colorado Department of Transportation will make preventative repairs to the Colorado Highway 144 bridge over Bijou Creek (Mile Point 24.4), which is approximately three miles west of Log Lake Village. A temporary signal will control traffic in a single lane through the bridge work zone.

The project also includes full-depth road reconstruction east of Weldona near County Road 12 (MP 20.6). Road repairs require a safety closure of CO 144 for approximately one and a half months.
