Dahlia Street bridge northbound lane over I-76 in Commerce City to be closed until fall
The northbound lane of Dahlia Street at the bridge over I-76 in Commerce City will be closed until fall for repairs, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation.
CDOT says damage to the bridge happened when a tractor-trailer struck the edge on Monday. Officials say the bridge is considered safe in its current condition as it was reopened early Thursday morning.
The department says it will continue to monitor the bridge until a "contract is awarded to repair the bridge later in the spring with construction following."
Here are the following northbound detours motorists can take:
- East on CO 224 (74th Street)
- North on US 85
- East on I-76
- West on 88th Avenue to Dahlia Street
The bridge is open to southbound traffic, but CDOT advises drivers to use caution in the area.
