The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) has announced an overnight closure of the concrete box culvert under Interstate 25 at Exit 108, also known as Purcell Boulevard, in Pueblo County. The closure will begin at 7 p.m. on Sunday, November 23 and is scheduled to last until 2 a.m. on Monday, November 24.
According to CDOT, the temporary closure is required to allow maintenance work to be performed safely for both crews and drivers. During this period, motorists who need to access northbound I-25 will be directed to use Exit 104. Traffic traveling on Purcell Boulevard will be detoured southbound toward Exit 104 before proceeding northbound.
A map highlighting the affected area and a photo of the box culvert have been provided by CDOT for public reference.
