Colorado freight intelligence snapshot
Colorado freight page for corridors, ports, airports and public signals.
Colorado is included in the BB Freight Alliance state layer because freight conditions are often easier to understand when national data is grounded in a state-level view.
The page is designed to connect freight gateways, interstate corridors, weather alerts and public data sources that affect movement through the state.
Future releases can add state DOT feeds and additional local sources where the data is public and reliable.
The Eisenhower-Johnson Memorial Tunnel on I-70 is the highest point on the Interstate system and a frequent winter chokepoint.
Denver is a major warehouse and distribution hub for the Front Range and the central Rocky Mountain region.
Hazmat trucks are generally prohibited from the Eisenhower-Johnson tunnels and normally use US 6 over Loveland Pass; when the pass is closed, certain hazmat loads may be escorted through the tunnels.
