Colorado Department of Transportation

A rock slide that includes two “two-story” boulders shut down Colorado Highway 145 north of Dolores.
Rain on Memorial Day could delay work to clear two boulders that fell Friday and closed Colorado Highway 145. Colorado Department of Transportation crews may be able to open a temporary, dirt bypass road to allow alternating one-lane traffic Tuesday or Wednesday.
On Sunday, Colorado Department of Transportation crews finished “scaling” the ridgeline above Colorado Highway 145 to ensure no further rock slides are possible. Rain on Memorial Day could delay work to reopen the highway.
