Got a call at the shop yesterday from C-DOT saying that I-70 was going to be closed from friday to monday. Traffic will be directed to Golden, and then through 6 to get to I-70. Just letting everyone know before you take the long drive up.

They said they were doing something on the overpass that collapsed and killed that family a while ago.

The closure is not that extensive just the C-470 overpass

DETOURS IN PLACE FOR MOTORISTS TRAVELING ON I-70 IN AND OUT OF THE HIGH COUNTRY NEXT WEEKEND

WEATHER PERMITTING, starting at 7 p.m. on Friday, November 19th and continuing until 5:30 a.m. on Monday, November 22nd, CDOT and its contractors will be installing girders at the C-470 bridge over I-70 as part of the interchange improvement project. This work is expected to have a major impact on traffic in the area over the weekend.

Generally, I-70 will be closed in both directions between the Genesee exit (#254) and Colfax Avenue.

Specifically:

During the above-mentioned hours, eastbound I-70 will be closed from the Genesee exit (#254) to C-470.

The detour route for eastbound I-70 is US 40 east. Motorists will exit at Genesee (exit # 254),

head east on US 40 and return to eastbound I-70 at the Colfax Avenue (US 40) and I-70 interchange. Traffic from northbound C-470 will be allowed access to eastbound I-70.

During the above-mentioned hours, westbound I-70 will be closed from Colfax Avenue to the Morrison exit (#259).

Motorists traveling on westbound I-70 will exit at Colfax Avenue and take US 40 to the Morrison exit (#259) where they can again access westbound I-70

 
if you take 40 through golden will it come out past the closure? i was on 70 today and saw the sign about the construction but i didn't know it would be totally closed.

 
im pretty sure they decided not to close it, cause of the whole skiing thing thats popular this time of year.
