Bonfire Engineering, in collaboration with the Southern Ute Shared Services, will begin construction on the tribal broadband project, just south of Ignacio, at the intersection of County Road 318 and Colorado Highway 172, mile marker 1 westbound to the intersection of County Road 311.

Crews will complete trenching and plowing to lay broadband fiber. Construction vehicles and fiber spools will be visible on the shoulder.

Construction will take place Feb. 22 to March 22, 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Traffic lanes will be narrowed on CR 318. Motorists will be required to reduce speeds and travel safely around the construction taking place on the side of the road.
