Traffic on I-80 Near Cheyenne to Be Temporarily Stopped Tuesday

Traffic on Interstate 80 west of Cheyenne will experience a brief delay Tuesday, Sept. 29, as contractors with Black Hills Energy and the Wyoming Department of Transportation work to remove unused, overhead power lines.

WYDOT spokeswoman Jordan Achs says the work will start at 8 a.m., and both eastbound and westbound I-80 traffic will be stopped for at least 10 minutes.

"Motorists expecting to pass through the work zone, which is about a mile west of the Roundtop Road interchange at mile marker 357, should be prepared to stop or consider alternative routes to their destinations," she said.

Black Hills Energy says the work will not result in any outages for customers.
