Project To Now Start During 2025 Construction Season

The Downhill Drive/US 40 Intersection Project being constructed by CDOT in partnership with the City of Steamboat Springs has been delayed until the 2025 construction season. Originally, the project was planned as a two phase construction project with Phase 1 (all work south of US 40) being constructed this year and Phase 2 (all work north of US 40) being constructed in 2025. The delay is due to an unforeseen back order in critical materials to complete Phase 1 of the Project.

The plan moving forward is to combine Phase 1 & Phase 2 for construction in the summer of 2025. Oldcastle SW Group Inc., the selected contractor, is confident the project will be able to be completed within the original overall project deadline of October 31, 2025.

A detailed schedule and the planned closure date of Downhill Drive will be announced when further updates become available.
