US 40 Floyd Hill Mill and Fill

On Aug. 1, 2016, the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) started the US 40 Floyd Hill Mill & Fill Project, a pavement restoration and maintenance project along four miles of US 40, west of Genesee Park and north of Saddleback Mountain.

This project will:

• Extend the life of the highway for 10 more years.
• Improve the quality and smoothness of the highway.
• Restore the current pavement and add a hot mix asphalt overlay as the top layer.
• Repair a bridge deck and resurface it.
• Recondition the shoulders.
• Adjust guardrail and install about 4,640 feet of new guardrail—meeting new CDOT safety standards.
