The Colorado Department of Transportation will be working on pavement marking this week on many state highways in Southeast Colorado.
The goal is to allow lanes to be more easily identified in dark and inclement weather, to improve driver safety and reduce incidents. Highways affected will include State Highways 9, 16, 21, 45, 67, 78, 115, US Highways 50, 160, 285 and 287 as well as I-25. Crews will be re-striping lines including center lines, turn lanes and the shoulder lines.
Work will take place from 7 pm to 5 AM through Friday morning, and will not require any full lane closures, but drivers are asked to slow down and carefully pass the painting truck while also avoiding the fresh paint.
