About the Project:
On April 11, the Colorado Department of Transportation began the I-70 Floyd Hill to Chief Hosa Repaving project. Work on this project will improve driving conditions and safety along this 6.4-mile stretch of I-70 through asphalt repaving, guardrail replacement, culvert cleaning, signage, and
striping.
Work will begin with safety elements, including guardrail, throughout the entire project zone between mile point (MP) 246.5 to MP 252.9. Motorists can expect paving operations, including milling and repaving, to begin in June. The project is expected to be completed in late 2022.
