Peña Construction Prompts Detours for Jackson Gap and 75th

DENVER – Sept. 19, 2024 – Starting Sunday, Sept. 22, the existing off-ramp from inbound Peña Boulevard (heading eastbound to DEN) to Jackson Gap Street will be closed for construction. While a temporary off-ramp is available, construction activity in the area will cause travel impacts. As such, it is strongly recommended that drivers use the 75^th Avenue off-ramp, which is located west of the Jackson Gap Street off-ramp, and follow detour signs for Jackson Gap Street. During this phase of work, westbound traffic on 75^th from Jackson Gap is prohibited. Detour routes will be in place and signs will be posted.

Accessing Pikes Peak Shuttle Lot

Inbound traffic heading toward the Pikes Peak shuttle lot must exit at 75^th, which is the first posted cell phone lot exit (approaching Gun Club Road, just east of E-470). Drivers on Jackson Gap will not be able to travel westbound on 75^th to the Pikes Peak shuttle lot. To access the Pikes Peak shuttle lot from the Terminal, using outbound Peña (leaving westbound from DEN), drivers will need to exit Peña at Jackson Gap and travel north on Jackson Gap to westbound 78^th Avenue. Then, drivers must proceed to southbound Gun Club Road.

Detour information is detailed on the maps below. This temporary configuration is anticipated to last through mid-November. The work will allow crews to reconstruct the existing off-ramp to align with a future diverging diamond interchange, which is part of DEN’s Peña Phase 1B project
