Travelers may experience delays along Chaffee County Road 350 (Crossman Avenue) outside of Buena Vista over the coming weeks while Chaffee County Road and Bridge works on widening the road.  

Both sides of the road will be widened, beginning from Waters Street on the east to the intersection with County Road 361 on the west.   

Construction is planned to continue through the end of August.     

Many road construction projects are underway including bridge replacement work that has closed Highway 285 between Antero Junction and Fairplay.  This total closure will be in place through mid-October.    

The alternate route is Highway 24 and Colorado 9.  This will add 15-20 minutes to your travel time. 

Other road projects include chip sealing on Highway 285 between Monte Vista and Saguache.  The project is expected to last until September.    

Improvements to Colorado Highway 96 in Custer County continue.    

The resurfacing project will improve 26 miles of CO 96 from Westcliffe to Wetmore and is expected to be completed in November. 

And starting today, portions of Colorado 115 between Penrose and Colorado Springs will be reduced to one lane alternating traffic for rehabilitation work.       

Motorists should allow for travel delays.
