~ Colorado Springs, CO - Starting Monday, January 26 at 6 a.m., the southbound South Academy Boulevard on-ramp to eastbound Milton Proby Parkway will be closed for approximately four months. This closure is necessary for water and drainage utility upgrades in the area.
According to officials, the closure is expected to last until the end of May, but may be subject to change depending on weather conditions. Motorists are advised to use Hancock Expressway as an alternative route to connect to eastbound Milton Proby Parkway. From there, they can continue east to access Colorado Springs Airport via the designated detour route.
