Highway 119 In Boulder Canyon Reopens Ahead Of Schedule
BOULDER, Colo. (CBS4) - A highway devastated by last month's floods reopened ahead of schedule on Sunday.
Local residents were on hand to help move roadblocks to the side of Highway 119 in Boulder Canyon. It was a big moment for residents of Nederland who had to drive an hour out of the way to get down to Boulder for work and school.
Highway 119 had been closed for about month.
The Colorado Department of Transportation started repairs in September and didn't think it would be ready for at least another week. Crews have been working 24/7 to get the highway drivable again.
