CO 149 traffic restricted

From the CDOT website:
The road is restricted due to the nearby West Fork Fire. Hwy 149 is now open between South Fork - Creede with pilot car operations escorting traffic through the area between 7AM - 11PM daily. Southbound traffic is escorted at the top of each hour while northbound traffic is escorted at the bottom of each hour. During overnight hours, 11PM-7AM, motorists must stop at safety check points at either end but are otherwise free to travel the highway without escort. Motorists should expect delays. Latest fire information: West Fork Fire. Restriction began June 29th, 2013 at 9:39am.


BTW, Wolf Creek pass reopened this a.m. to traffic, subject to the whims of the fire.
