    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

    Please use this picture of the Wyoming sign instead of stopping at the stateline. Seeing major congestion there due to selfies.

    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.
