The Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), working with United Companies, has finished a resurfacing project on US Highway 40 in Winter Park. The work covered about four miles, from Vasquez Road (Mile Point 229) to Winter Park Drive (MP 233). The project started on May 12 and was completed on October 15, 2025.
“These improvements were identified by both CDOT and the Winter Park community as priority needs, and we are proud to see this significant project completed. The US 40 Winter Park resurfacing project enhances safety, improves mobility for residents and visitors, and strengthens vital connections throughout our mountain region,” said CDOT Executive Director Shoshana Lew. “By improving the condition of the roadway, we are also enhancing the quality of life for commuters, bicyclists, and pedestrians. Projects such as this demonstrate CDOT’s continued commitment to maintaining and modernizing Colorado’s transportation infrastructure in close collaboration with our community partners.”
The scope of work included removing old asphalt through milling, repaving with new asphalt, replacing guardrails, and updating Americans with Disabilities Act ramps at several intersections along US 40. These intersections include Blaze Resorts, Village Drive, Old Town Drive, and Winter Park Drive. Bridge joint repairs were also performed at Mile Point 224 in Tabernash.
