We build & maintain Colorado's highways & support other modes. Safety's our #1 priority. Hours: 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m M-F; Road info: cotrip.org
- Update: the large boulder the size of a large boulder is now a large boulder the size of a smaller boulder on CO 145:
A large boulder the size of a large boulder is blocking the southbound lane Hwy 145 mm28 in Stoner Creek area of Montezuma County. Expect delays. #largeboulder - I-70 mountain conditions remain extreme—see this video just taken at the Eisenhower Tunnel. Expect long delays and closures as crews work to restore roads to safe condition.
00:00 - I-70 Glenwood Canyon Closure. Multiple slides have occurred. Images from the Hanging Lake Tunnels Operations Center. No estimated time of opening.
- Hard hats off to CDOT workers who've been working 'round the clock to keep mt passes cleared, widened and avalanche-free. Be aware that additional mtnc work and safety closures may be implemented. Visit cotrip.org for road closures and conditions.
- Would you know what to do if your vehicle was buried in an avalanche debris field? TURN OFF YOUR CAR. Carbon Monoxide could be deadly in this situation. STAY IN YOUR VEHICLE. CALL FOR HELP emergency responders will come to your aid. PLAN AHEAD. Have an emergency kit in your car.WOW! This is terrifying! Just got this video from the view of a car going eastbound on I-70 yesterday around 5 p.m. Thankfully, no cars were buried. No one was hurt. #cowx
00:00 - Exec Director, Shailen Bhatt, with our 2 brave CDOT employees who helped the driver from today's tanker fire reach safety. Excellent work!

- LIVE UPDATE on WB I-70 closure just outside of Glenwood Springs.
00:00 - 🎉After working all night, CDOT has finished repairs and ALL LANES NB & SB I-25 from Dry Creek to Belleview are now OPEN! 🎉
- ❗️TRAVEL UPDATE | ONE LANE IN EACH DIRECTION OPEN - Glenwood Canyon ❗️ ⚠️ UPDATE - 7:05 a.m. (8/14/21) - I-70 Glenwood Canyon is OPEN - I-70 Glenwood Canyon is open both eastbound and westbound from MP 116 (Glenwood Springs) to MP 133 (Dotsero).
- Please use this picture of the Wyoming sign instead of stopping at the stateline. Seeing major congestion there due to selfies.
- ❄️TRAVEL ALERT❄️ | COLORADO STATEWIDE Colorado is in for a week's worth of snow and bitter cold temps! Delay travel plans if possible. Highways across the state will be impacted with hazardous conditions, particularly in the high country through Thurs. #KnowBeforeYouGo
- We often hear how frustrated you are that we don't provide estimated times of opening (ETO) but rapidly changing conditions during a winter storm event and motorists that drive the I-70 corridor unprepared make it difficult for us to predict an opening.
