Highway 9 Improvements This Summer

More road improvements are scheduled on Highway 9 between Breckenridge and Frisco this summer.

Federal stimulus money will help towards improving and widening to four lanes the portion of Highway 9 between Valley Brook Road and Coyne Valley Road. Colorado Department of Transportation planners stated that earlier bids for various projects are averaging about 12 percent less than what the agency previously budgeted. Any budgeted money remaining would be used to improve and widen to four lanes the portion of Highway 9 between Valley Brook Road and Fairview Blvd.

Colorado Department of Transport is also planning to repave Interstate 70 between the Eisenhower Tunnel and Vail Pass.
