Project Overview

The Federal Highway Administration, Colorado Department of Transportation Region 3, and Town of Parachute are preparing an Environmental Assessment for the addition of an interchange to I-70 west of the Town of Parachute, in Garfield County, Colorado.

The overall purpose of this project is to improve interstate operations, mobility, and connectivity with I-70 in the Parachute area, and reduce regional traffic on local streets within the Town of Parachute.
