I-25

The blizzard that swept through Wyoming to Texas had a name, and the name was Ulmer.

Ulmer left his mark on Laramie in the form of 12 inches of snow, give or take a few inches, but not before dropping a “bomb” on the area.

Interstate 80 from near Rock Springs east into the Nebraska Panhandle is closed. I-25 from the Colorado border north to Buffalo, Wyoming is closed.

Wyomingites know home is just 1 mile ahead when they see this bison on the bluff on the east side of I-25 near Carr. It’s a metal cutout that hides a secret.

It always nice to see our state troopers working in harmony with the neighboring states to improve our overall safety.

Speed is listed as a contributing factor in the crash.

Construction is expected to be finished by Oct. 31.

A trooper was parked in the median, watching traffic, when he saw a northbound Volkswagen traveling at 96 mph in an 80-mph speed zone.

WYDOT reminds drivers that parking on any section of closed roadway is prohibited and delays WYDOT's efforts to reopen the road.

For current road conditions, visit WyoRoad.info, call 511 or use the WYDOT 511 app for smartphones.

The key to avoiding such a crash, Haver emphasized, is for drivers to simply slow down.
