Night owls and early birds can expect another round of lane closures on Interstate 70 near Floyd Hill this week as crews work on building a bridge over the interstate, Colorado Department of Transportation officials said.<\/p>\n

Construction workers need to install a moveable platform on a bridge column that will allow crews to build the bridge segment by segment, CDOT said in a news release Wednesday.<\/p>\n

To install the platform, CDOT will close one lane of westbound I-70 at exit 244 for U.S. 6 from 9 p.m. Wednesday to 5 a.m. Thursday. <\/p>\n

One eastbound lane will be closed at the same exit from 9 p.m. Friday to 5 a.m. Saturday; 9 p.m. Monday to 5 a.m. Tuesday; and 9 p.m. Tuesday to 5 a.m. Wednesday so crews can remove some temporary structures on another column, state officials said.<\/p>\n

Westbound drivers will merge into one lane and use U.S. 6 ramps to continue on I-70, while eastbound drivers will merge and exit at U.S. 6 and drive east on the U.S. 40 frontage road before getting back on I-70 at exit 248.<\/p>\n

Construction may change based on the weather, and drivers can get updates on lane closures by texting by texting \u201cfloydhill\u201d to 21000. <\/p>\n
