Re: Railroad Display in Black Canyon - Highway 50 Closures

Be aware that a visit to the display could be a dead end trip, depending what day or time of day you’re traveling. Hwy 50 between Montrose and Gunnison is closed for substantial periods on weekdays through 2021, resulting in a long detour via Hwy 92.

Here is the schedule of closures plus a link to the official website. [www.codot.gov] as well as the project website [www.us50info.com]



We’re planning to travel that route in September, and I’ll be wanting to know if the 5:30-7:30 pm alternating traffic window is guaranteed for all travelers. If not it would be a bummer to wait in line till 7:30 pm and find you can’t get through, then have a 3+ hour detour to contend with.

Cheers,
Ralph
