Interstate 80

Interstate 80 has reopened, but the 124-mile stretch between Walcott Junction and Cheyenne remains closed to light and high-profile vehicles due to gusting winds.

"Monday night, a WHP Trooper stopped a speeding van on I-80 east of Evanston, Wyoming," the WHP wrote in a Facebook post. "The Trooper's radar clocked the motorist at 110 mph."

The Wyoming Highway Patrol recently announced that they had pulled over a semi truck for for exceeding the posted speed limit by over 20 miles an hour in an area that was known to be extremely slick and dangerous.

As of 1:45 p.m., Interstate 80 in Wyoming was closed in both directions between Rock Springs and Rawlins and westbound from Cheyenne to Rawlins.

Truckers traveling through southeast Wyoming tomorrow morning may want to avoid the interstates and opt for truck stops.

A crash has forced the closure of Interstate 80 between Rawlins and Cheyenne, the Wyoming Department of Transportation says.

Five people were taken to the hospital Monday night following a multi-vehicle pileup on Interstate 80, Unita County Fire and Ambulance says.

Snow combined with winds gusting as high as 60 mph will make travel very difficult to impossible across parts of southeast Wyoming tonight, the National Weather Service in Cheyenne says.
