EL PASO & TELLER COUNTIES — Drivers making their way east through Ute Pass Canyon should expect some delays and increased traffic Monday - Wednesday during the daytime hours.
The Colorado Department of Transportation says crews will begin rockfall mitigation work in the eastbound lanes through
Ute Pass Canyon.
Traffic will be diverted to the westbound left lane, so drivers on both sides of the road should expect head-to-head traffic and a longer travel time through the canyon. Work is set to take place from 9:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m. from Monday through Wednesday.
Another mitigation project will be taking place in the area later this month from June 23 -25.
The speed will be reduced to 35 miles per hour in the work zone.
