Photo: Traffic out of Aspen backs up over a mile

News News | Dec 20, 2014

Traffic backs up before the S-curves on westbound Main Street in Aspen Thursday evening. Emergency dispatchers said massive numbers of motorists trying to leave town in the same time period appeared to be the cause. No major accidents west of town were reported. Some roadside maintenance work in the roundabout that reduced traffic to one lane also contributed to the problem.
