I-70 ramp on 18th Street to be closed beginning next Wednesday

The westbound I-70 to northbound 18th Street ramp will be closed to all traffic beginning at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, June 27 for emergency repair work on drainage structures underneath the ramp.

Advance message boards will alert drivers to the ramp closure.

A marked detour will be provided. Traffic will take westbound I-70 to 38th Street/Park Drive, and then take Park Drive back to 18th Street.  Drivers should expect minor delays and must use alternate routes during the ramp closure.
