Hwy 50 Closed for 1 to 2 days Due to Gas Tanker Rollover/Burning

I spoke to a representative of Colorado State Patrol at 7:40 this morning and was informed that a gas tanker rolled at approximately 12:30 am on Hwy 50.

Due to this accident the Highway will be closed for the next 1 to 2 days between Montrose & Gunnison while it burns itself out and clean up is done.

All traffic is being Diverted on Hwy 92.

We will keep you updated as information becomes available!
