Wolf Creek Pass Closed for At Least 2 Hours This Morning

CDOT will perform winter maintenance operations on US 160 Wolf Creek Pass today, Monday, January 2.

Crews will close the highway and begin work at 5:30am.

Westbound traffic will be stopped just west of the ski area near the pass summit (MP 167) and eastbound traffic will be stopped near Treasure Falls (MP 157).

Regional travelers should plan ahead, allow for extra travel time, or arrive at the closure points before 5:30am to avoid the lengthy closure.
