Upcoming rockfall mitigation to require full closure of I-70 at Fall River Road
IDAHO SPRINGS–The Colorado Department of Transportation will begin rockfall mitigation on I-70 at Fall River Road, just west of Idaho Springs, starting the week of May 8 through early June. Crews will be drilling the rockface Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. to release air pockets and loosen rock to allow for a more productive blast. This will not require a lane closure and is safe for the traveling public to drive past.
Once a week, crews will need to blast the rockface to release loose rock which will require a 20 minute full closure of east and westbound I-70 from Fall River Road to Dumont to protect the safety of motorists and CDOT crews. There are no set days for blasting at this time as it is difficult to know when the rockface will be ready for detonation. When crews blast, however, they will be doing so between Monday and Thursday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
