About From Ashes to Asphalt: Glenwood Canyon Recovery Series:
In August 2021, thousands of tons of rock, mud, and debris poured down the burn scar of the Grizzly Creek Fire, severing Interstate 70 through Colorado’s Glenwood Canyon. It was the most destructive event in the history of the I-70 Mountain Corridor—closing the state’s vital east-west artery, costing the economy $1 million for every hour of closure, and forcing drivers onto up to 5-hour detours.
To mark the five-year anniversary of the disaster in 2026, the CDOT presents “Ashes to Asphalt: Glenwood Canyon Recovery”— a 6-part mini-documentary series taking you behind the scenes of an unprecedented engineering and emergency response effort.
Through archival footage and firsthand accounts, meet the maintenance crews, geologists, engineers, and first responders who worked around the clock to rebuild Colorado’s primary lifeline.

Managing traffic on Colorados roads takes more than cones and barrels. When working alongside live traffic, the stakes are as high. Traffic control is the foundation of nearly every CDOT project and keeps traffic flowing safely and efficiently during construction, maintenance and incident response. See how training equips our personnel with the knowledge and skills to manage and maintain our transportation system, protect the safety of those working to keep our roads operational and ensure the well-being of motorists using the roads.
Learn more about the tools, training and teamwork we use to keep traffic moving and roadside workers safe. At CDOT, we do more than you think.

Una prueba con un robot de pimpón simula el efecto de manejar bajo el efecto de alcohol o drogas. En este experimento, CDOT trabajó junto con la doctora Violeta García para demostrar cómo el consumo de alcohol y drogas afecta la habilidad para manejar. ¿Los resultados? Mal puntaje en pimpón. ¿Y para los conductores? Consecuencias mortales. Míralo y nunca manejes bajo el efecto de alcohol o drogas.

Golpear el parabrisas a treinta millas por hora se siente como caer de un edificio de tres pisos. Por eso, abrocharte el cinturón de seguridad es lo más sencillo que puedes hacer para prevenir lesiones en un choque. En este experimento, el Departamento de Transporte de Colorado, junto con la doctora Violeta García muestran lo grave que puede ser no abrocharse. Como conductor o pasajero, el cinturón de seguridad te mantiene a salvo. Abróchate y haz el cambio por la seguridad.
