Motorists using US Highway 160 between Home Depot and downtown Durango are advised to expect delays on October 21 and 22 due to bridge inspections. The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) announced that lane shifts and closures will be in effect at several bridges along Camino Del Rio during these dates to ensure the safety of workers performing routine inspections.
According to CDOT, these inspections are necessary for maintaining the integrity of transportation infrastructure. Travelers are encouraged to allow extra time for their commutes as traffic may be slower than usual through the affected area.
