COLORADO (KOAA) — If the Memorial Day weekend has you heading for the mountains, remember to give yourself extra time to get through all of the construction zones.
Some of the major construction projects include the following:
- northbound lanes closed on Highway 9 near Breckenridge
- road work on westbound I-70 near Copper Mountain
Other construction projects happening in the state may take a break for the weekend.
For a map of closures and to stay up to date on road conditions, visit the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) website.
