Douglas Pass construction through August

RBC | The Colorado Department of Transportation began a project on CO 139 on the south side (Garfield County) of Douglas Pass on April 30, with an anticipated completion date of mid-August. The work, contracted to United Companies for $4.8 million, repairs, resurfaces and replaces guardrail along 12 miles between mile point (MP) 19 at the southern base of the pass and MP 31, about three miles south of the summit.
TRAVEL IMPACTS (DAY & NIGHT)
Motorists will encounter single-lane, alternating travel directed by a pilot car through the work zone, Monday through Friday (and some Saturdays), from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Also, Monday through Friday nights, from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m., a signal will direct single-lane travel through a short work area where equipment must be staged overnight. A width restriction of 12 feet will be in place, 24/7, starting each Monday at 7 a.m. and ending each Saturday at 7 p.m..
Motorists are urged to avoid distractions when driving through the work zone and to go Slow for the Cone Zone!
