Accessing Interstate 25 in southern Castle Rock just got a little easier.

While not all interchange ramps are open, the Crystal Valley interchange project has reached another major milestone, with the opening of the first northbound I-25 on-ramp from the Crystal Valley Parkway/East Frontage Road roundabout.

Now, motorists can access northbound I-25 from Crystal Valley Parkway, improving regional mobility and helping reduce congestion in the southern portion of Town. Scheduled for full project completion in 2027, the ramp opening provides early access to the interstate.

Continued construction progress may allow the project to finish ahead of schedule. For now, as ramps and other portions of the interchange are completed, the Town will open them to traffic as soon as it is safe to do so.

Drivers can access the new northbound I-25 on-ramp by traveling through the roundabout at Crystal Valley Parkway and East Frontage Road, then continuing westbound on Crystal Valley Parkway to the on-ramp. See the map below.

This project is a collaborative effort among the Town, Douglas County and the Colorado Department of Transportation.

June is heating up, Castle Rock!

While the weather outside is beautiful, temperatures inside vehicles can become dangerously hot in just minutes, with tragic consequences. According to NoHeatstroke.org, an average of 37 children in the U.S. die each year after being left in hot vehicles. PETA also reports that more than 100 pets die from heat-related causes in vehicles annually. These tragedies are heartbreaking, but they are also 100% preventable with simple precautions.

As temperatures continue to rise, Castle Rock Fire And Rescue Department would like to remind everyone to help keep children and pets safe in vehicles by keeping these important reminders in mind:
- A child’s body temperature rises three to five times faster than an adult’s and can become fatal when their core temperature reaches 107 degrees Fahrenheit
- In just 10 minutes, the temperature inside a vehicle that is not running can increase by 20 degrees Fahrenheit
- Cracked windows, water or even air conditioning may not provide enough protection
- Help prevent accidental tragedies by leaving a reminder in the front seat when traveling with a child or pet, such as a shoe, stuffed animal, leash or dog toy
- If you're running errands, leave pets at home or ensure children are in the care of another adult

If you see a child or animal alone in a locked vehicle, call 911 immediately. A few minutes can make all the difference. Please help spread the word and keep our community safe this summer.
