UPDATE: A key highway route linking Colorado’s Front Range urban corridor to mountain areas northwest of metro Denver, including Rocky Mountain National Park, was reopened Monday after a massive rockslide forced a 12-day closure.

A key highway route linking Colorado’s Front Range urban corridor to mountain areas northwest of metro Denver, including Rocky Mountain National Park, was reopened Monday after a massive rockslide forced a 12-day closure.

Colorado Department of Transportation officials declared Colorado 7 between Lyons and Allenspark open on Twitter Monday morning. Rocks hurtling down to the highway, following a period of heavy rain, blocked the roadway on June 14. CDOT crews have been blasting away boulders as big as shipping containers. As crews worked, they saw that other rocks on a cliff over the highway were loose and extended the closure.
