Getting your player ready...
The beginning of work scheduled to close Interstate 70 at Idaho Springs was delayed Thursday night because of weather conditions.
The Colorado Department of Transportation announced on Twitter that work would begin at 9 p.m. Friday.
The closure will be at Exit 240 as crews do initial girder settings for a new bridge going over the highway. Crews will begin to work at about 8 p.m. each night with the full closure occurring an hour later. The work is expected to be completed by 6 a.m. on Jan. 5.
Drivers will use the off- and on-ramps at the exit to move around the closure.
