Travel Impacts - Updated Oct. 31, 2024
As we move into the colder months, there will be limited maintenance activities happening on I-70 and the ramps that will impact travel.
Activities could include:
- General roadway maintenance, refresh striping, pothole repair, guardrail repair and other items
- Graffiti removal
- Tunnel equipment maintenance
It is also important to be prepared for travel in snow and ice. Please make sure you consider the following items prior to traveling in inclement weather:
- Make sure all your windows are clear and you have good visibility
- Make sure you have snow tires, chains or four-wheel drive
- Do not pass snow plows and give them space to do their work
- If you don’t have to go out – don’t
