Closure on eastbound I-70 at Herman Gulch in Colorado's mountains due to crash
A traffic incident resulted in the closure of eastbound lanes on I-70 at Silverthorne in the Colorado mountains last Thursday morning. The crash, involving multiple vehicles, occurred just after 9 a.m., leading to the transportation of nine individuals to the hospital, including via a Flight for Life helicopter. The incident affected both directions of I-70, with westbound lanes experiencing delays. The cause of the crash is under investigation by the Colorado State Patrol, although winter driving conditions were evident according to CDOT cameras. The closure extended from exit 205 at Silverthorne to exit 216 at U.S. 6/Loveland Pass, with no definite time frame for the reopening of the interstate. Significant traffic congestion occurred in the area, prompting drivers to seek alternative routes.
