road closures

The Wyoming Department of Transportation reports that I-80 from Laramie to Rawlins has re-opened, but that both I-25 and US 87 from Cheyenne to Wheatland are currently closed due to winter conditions and crashes.

If you're not authorized and ignore a closure gate, you risk becoming stranded or hurt and can be fined up to $750.

In Wyoming, much of I-80 is closed due to a Rolling Closure and Winter Weather Conditions. Over 350 Miles of I-80 between Evanston and Cheyenne are closed.

In a sign that the Cowboy State is in the middle of winter, the Wyoming Department of Transportation has ordered the closure of some highways while issuing advisories for others.

While it's not uncommon for those traveling in Wyoming to see wind-related closures and advisories, the highway patrol says drivers shouldn't blow them off.

A winter weather advisory is in place for Wyoming's southern mountains.

The Wyoming Department of Transportation has issued the following closures.

Construction on the new roundabout behind Frontier Mall will get underway tomorrow, the City of Cheyenne announced Wednesday.

Health officials or suppliers needing assistance transporting COVID-19 related materials or supplies on a closed road are asked to contact Wyoming Highway Patrol Dispatch at 307-777-4321.

Parts of Wyoming are virtually shut down as a winter storm moves through.
