Please Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease device battery life.

Drop the Distraction
The primary responsibility of every driver is the safe operation of their vehicle. While traveling, mobile communication devices should be used only when the motor vehicle is at a complete stop off the traveled portion of the roadway. Do not text and drive (it's against the law) or use this app while driving. For more information about distracted driving in Colorado and safety tips, visit https://distracted.codot.gov.

Ratings and reviews

The app itself is really quite good. However, the data it coveys it is so inaccurate. We drive I-70 through the mountains a lot and often run into a closure that isn't reported on the app for hours. Or the opposite, the highway is open but the app shows it as closed. Why can't CDOT keep this information up-to-the-minute for important things like closures? We can't ever trust it, it's correct 50% of the time at best. Also, estimates for reopening, like 30min closure vs 6hr would sure be helpful!

Could be great. A traveler needs a route and all the material information about that route. Problem 1: You can't make a route with the mobile app. Once you solve that, then show me all the critical info I need to know and keep it updated real-time (based on other reviews, this is Problem 2) Lastly, being able to compare alternate routes (if they exist) and their conditions would be ideal. A traveler does not need conditions on all the roads they do NOT plan to travel on.

This app used to be very good, however, when setting buttons for mile points and what not, they do not show up on my phone as they do when using my laptop. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version and ensured I was logged in but to no avail. Am I missing something? Do the mile points not cross over to the phone? Thanks! 4/8/25 Update: Looks like the mile markers and other additions are back! Thanks for the quick response!
