Body
Summary:
Construction on the I-25 S. Gap project started Sept. 4 on the northern end of project, five miles from Sky View Lane to south of Castle Rock. Near the southern end of the project, crews are finalizing design and preparing for construction. Expect work to begin between Monument and the Greenland exit by December 2018. With this project, CDOT is improving 18 miles of I-25 by widening the road from two to three lanes in each direction. The new lane will operate as an Express Lane, allowing motorists the choice of taking the Express Lane for a faster and more reliable travel time in exchange for a toll, or driving the general purpose lanes for free. Carpools with three or more people and motorcyclists will be able to ride the Express Lane for free. Other improvements include widening the shoulders, rebuilding bridges, building new wildlife crossings, resurfacing with new pavement and modernizing technology. The total cost of the project is $350 million. Substantial completion of the project is expected late 2021 with toll collection beginning in 2022.
