The sinkhole is forming off the shoulder of the roadway, CDOT said. Engineers are on scene assessing the damage.

Westbound traffic is being diverted onto US 6 at Wolcott.
The detour is approximately 10 miles and oversized loads are not permitted through the detour.
It’s unclear how long the closure will last. There is no estimated time on when work will be completed.
