The span on the south side of Glenwood Springs, also known as the Sunlight Bridge, is rated one of the worst in Colorado. Built in 1968, it carries more than 14,000 vehicles a day and is considered to be at the end of its lifespan. According to the city of Glenwood Springs, the first phase of the project begins Tuesday, January 2. By summer 2019, crews will be ready to replace both the traffic and pedestrian bridges and install a roundabout. Drivers should expect daily delays and lane closures. Most of the work will be done on weekdays but some night and weekend hours are expected, too. More information is at the 27th St. Bridge project page.
Work to Begin on 27th St. Bridge, Continue Through 2019
