DENVER — After years of planning, hundreds of hours of community input and several lawsuits aimed at stopping the Colorado Department of Transportation’s plan to lower and cover part of I-70 with a park, Denver’s first major freeway project in 15 years will begin Friday.
The Central 70 project will widen and lower a ten-mile section of highway between I-25 and Chambers Road.
CDOT provided this new graphic showing the detailed timeline for each phase of the project and the communities it will impact.
