During the detours, southbound traffic to Interstate 25 will not be able to use the Yellowstone Highway on-ramp. Instead, traffic will use the Curtis Street interchange.
Meanwhile, northbound traffic will still be able to use the Curtis Street Interchange along with the Bryan Stock trail.
Interstate traffic and Yellowstone Highway traffic will be separated by concrete barriers. Business access will remain open.
Crews expect demolition to begin on Monday and for it to expect to last up to 20 days, with demolition work lasting up to 20 hours each day.
