Interstate 80 has reopened, but the 124-mile stretch between Walcott Junction and Cheyenne remains closed to light and high-profile vehicles due to gusting winds.
Work on the Interstate 25 bridges over West Lincolnway and the Union Pacific Railroad tracks in Cheyenne is scheduled to get underway Monday, April 3, weather permitting.
Snow combined with winds gusting as high as 60 mph will make travel very difficult to impossible across parts of southeast Wyoming tonight, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.
A portion of Interstate 80 in Wyoming was closed as of 9;30 a.m. Friday, while strong winds had prompted restrictions for light, high profile vehicles over another stretch of I-80.
The Wyoming Department of Transportation announced late Wednesday afternoon that the Western Hills Boulevard pedestrian bridge over Interstate 25 in Cheyenne will reopen today.
