The extreme climate and numerous freeze/thaw cycles in Wolf Creek Canyon caused the roadway material to degrade to the point where routine maintenance was no longer practical.More information about the planned improvements and construction activities can be found here.For current traffic conditions and up-to-date restrictions visit 511mt.net.To sign up to receive email notifications about construction activities, email Brandon Coates at Brandon@rbci.net.
