Freight Advisory Council Members and Freight Advocates:
On Behalf of the Freight Advisory Council Chair, Mike Ogborn - Please consider attending this important meeting to be hosted by CDOT.
What: I-270 Critical Bridge Replacements Alternative Delivery Public/Industry Virtual Meeting
When: Wednesday, May 25, 2022 from 5:30 p.m.– 6:50 p.m.
Where: Virtual (interactive online meeting using Zoom)
CDOT invites you to join us for an update on the upcoming I-270 Critical Bridge Replacements Project. On the I-270 corridor, there are eight (8) structures within a one-mile stretch between York St. and Vasquez Blvd. that have been in service for over 50 years and have been requiring frequent emergency deck repairs. These emergency deck repairs always require lane closures which severely impact travel times and cause traffic to detour out-of-direction via I-70 and other local routes. Bridge inspections rated 6 of the 8 bridges in this one-mile segment as ‘poor’, which made them eligible for Bridge & Tunnel Enterprise (BTE) funding for full replacement.
This meeting will exclusively focus on the I-270 Critical Bridge Replacements Project and will include a presentation beginning at 5:30 p.m. on the project alternative delivery method selection process and alternative delivery method recommendation followed by a question and answer (Q&A) session with a panel of CDOT project team members.
To participate in this virtual meeting, you must register in advance using the following link:

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO
CO 13 Rio Blanco Hill Widening Project
Work May 23-27
The CO 13 Garfield County Rio Blanco Hill Widening Project will reconstruct and improve safety on CO 13. Safety improvements will include widening of the road, as well as embankment and drainage work. These improvements are designed to give motorists wider roads to travel on during inclement weather, higher traffic volumes, and to prevent road erosion. The resurfacing and widening will create smoother pavement and improved driving conditions, and adding chain up areas will significantly improve safety for travelers when weather conditions suddenly change.
