Rockfall and Semi-Truck Crash Cause Road Closures
News summary

A significant rockfall occurred on US Highway 40 near Steamboat Springs, Colorado, leading to a road closure that lasted over five hours, with the highway reopening by 5:20 p.m. Wednesday. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) crews worked to clear the debris, including large boulders. The incident postponed planned cleanup activities in Glenwood Canyon, where a semi-truck crash on Interstate 70 had already caused lane closures. The crash on I-70 led to indefinite closure of the eastbound lanes and detours being set up through other routes, including US 40. Additionally, parts of Interstate 135 in Wichita, Kansas, will be closed over the next two weekends for a bridge project, affecting both northbound and southbound traffic.
