Overnight closures for Cimarron/I-25 work during week of Sept. 10
I-25 northbound traffic moves past the off-ramp
for the new interstate bridge over Cimarron Street/Highway 24 that was a key part
of the interchange project. The bridge, which was built in two phases (in fall 2016
and summer 2017) opened on its northbound side in August. Work in the week of
Sept. 10 includes final ramp striping and median work on the bridge.
