Cheyenne Road bridge temporary closure for maintenance

Yahoo02-04-2025
(COLORADO SPRINGS) — The City of Colorado Springs announced that the Cheyenne Road bridge west of Cresta Road will be closed from Thursday, April 3, through Friday, April 11, for maintenance work.
According to the city, the Cheyenne Road bridge sits about 200 ft. west of Cresta Road, where work is currently being done on the Cresta Road Bridge, as of Tuesday, April 1. According to the City, work on the Cresta Road bridge should be finished on April 2 before work on the Cheyenne Road bridge begins.
Work on the Cheyenne Road bridge will include waterproofing the bridge structure, replacing the pavement, and other repairs. The work is expected to extend the service life of the bridge and limit future repairs and road closures.
Drivers should give themselves extra time to take alternate routes during construction. The maintenance work will happen before 2C's repaving in the area this summer. All work should be completed before the 2025 United States Senior Open at the Broadmoor in late June.

Colorado wildfires: Lee Fire grows to more than 100K acres amid ‘near-critical' weather

Update: The Lee Fire has now grown to be the 5th largest wildfire in state history. Follow the latest updates here. DENVER (KDVR) — One of the fires burning now more than 100,000 acres in Rio Blanco County in northwest Colorado continues to grow during ongoing 'near-critical fire weather' conditions, though fire crews are slowly starting to contain the blaze. The Lee Fire, one of two fires in Rio Blanco County in addition to the much smaller Elk Fire, has burned 106,672 acres near the town of Meeker. The Elk Fire has held relatively steady at 14,635 acres, fire officials reported Sunday morning. Colorado Wildfire Map Both fires do have some containment, according to officials, with the Elk Fire 9% contained and the Lee Fire 6% contained. More than 1,000 personnel are working on fire response. The Lee Fire is the 6th largest fire in Colorado history, according to the Colorado Division of Fire Prevention and Control. 'Although crews were able to make excellent progress with firefighting efforts, and there was less smoke in the air as days before, firefighters still saw extreme fire behavior today,' officials said in a Saturday night post. The extreme fire behavior was likely to continue Sunday amid low humidity, gusty winds and a lack of cloud coverage. 'The very dry fuels with the expected weather could result in extreme fire behavior in some areas of the fire,' officials said Sunday morning. Several areas of Rio Blanco County and Garfield County are under evacuation or pre-evacuation notices. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
