  • U.S. Highway 60 between Superior and Miami, mileposts 227-231, will be intermittently reduced to one lane with alternating east- and westbound travel.
    • Flaggers and a pilot car will assist drivers through the work zone.
    • Drivers should be prepared to stop when approaching and proceeding through the flagging operation.
    • Expect delays of up to 15 minutes.

Full closures of U.S. Highway 60, when required, will occur from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays through November.
