Santa Fe Drive to Close at Cedar Avenue Nov. 10–14 for BNSF Track Work

BNSF sought the shutdown to replace railroad tracks in the Baker area for public safety.

Overview

  • The full closure runs from 4 a.m. Monday, Nov. 10, to 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 14, just north of Alameda Avenue.
  • Denver transportation officials urge drivers to avoid the Santa Fe and Alameda intersection and warn of delays along Alameda.
  • The official detour for northbound traffic sends motorists west on Alameda Avenue to Federal Boulevard, though drivers may also turn east on Alameda.
  • I-25 users are advised to choose an exit other than Alameda Avenue during the work week to reduce congestion.
  • Local traffic may continue on Santa Fe north of Alameda up to the Cedar Avenue closure, with only two options there: head onto I-25 north or turn around south on Kalamath Drive.
