The Colorado Department of Transportation has again pushed back its scheduled closure of Interstate 225 because of winter weather conditions.

The overnight closure of I-225 at the Tamarac Street/DTC Boulevard exit will now begin at 9 p.m. Tuesday and reopening at 5 a.m. Wednesday.

During this time, southbound I-225 will be fully closed. Traffic will be detoured along a two-mile route using posted signs.

The closure will allow crews to remove temporary barriers and restrict the newly widened and extended two-lane on-ramp to northbound Interstate 25 via southbound I-225.

This is the final phase of a three-part project designed to improve capacity and make safety upgrades at two key interchanges on southbound I-225: The South Parker Road exit and I-25/I-225 junction.

CDOT said the closure schedule could change again depending on weather conditions Tuesday.

More information on this and future closures is available at COTrip.org or by calling 511.
