"I am incredibly proud of our team's swift and dedicated work to safely reopen Loveland Pass after the recent landslide," said Jessica Mykelbust, CDOT Denver Metro transportation director. "Our crews' expertise and tireless efforts ensured that we could restore access through this vital mountain corridor as quickly as possible, demonstrating our commitment to keeping Colorado's roadways safe and open."
Loveland Pass closed on June 15 after a landslide occurred around Mile Point 226 at 5:30 a.m. CDOT stated, "The slide was caused by material above the roadway becoming saturated from melting snow and sliding onto the road." The slide was initially reported to be around 100 feet wide and 15 to 20 feet deep.
CDOT stated that their Geohazard team determined that travel was safe for motorists and recreationists after seeing no activity on the mountainside.
Individuals traveling on Loveland Pass may still see crews performing cleanup from the shoulder.
