Intermittent lane closures begin week of Feb. 20

Beginning the week of Feb. 20 and lasting approximately 10 days, Denver Water’s contractor, Kiewit-Barnard, will be excavating near Highway 72. Kiewit-Barnard has placed concrete barriers between the excavation area and Highway 72, wholly in the shoulder of Highway 72 on the westbound lane only. The barriers are in place to ensure motorist and worker safety and to maintain a two-way traffic flow on Highway 72 during a majority of this work.

Even though these barriers are in place, there may be intermittent lane closures for safety reasons. We understand this may cause delays and thank you in advance for your patience. As with all projects impacting roadways, we will ensure access for all emergency vehicles and continue to coordinate with local public safety personnel.

This work is weather-dependent and timeframes are subject to change. We will provide periodic updates as needed via email, and will continue to provide project updates via the project My Map.
