Trail Ridge Road, the highest continuous paved road in the continental United States, is celebrating its 75th Anniversary this year. This awe inspiring road needs work that is long overdue and will begin this spring. The project will focus on critical repairs such as resurfacing the road from Deer Ridge Junction to Rainbow Curve, and six roadway slump repairs between Forest Canyon Overlook and the Colorado River Trailhead.
美国本土海拔最高的连续铺设公路——脊岭路，今年将迎来其75周年纪念。 这条令人惊叹的公路早已亟待修缮，相关工程将于今年春季启动。此次工程的重点将放在一些关键性修复工作上，包括对从鹿岭路口到彩虹弯路段的路面重铺，以及对森林峡谷观景台和科罗拉多河步道起点之间的六处道路坍塌进行修复。
Because Trail Ridge Road reaches an elevation of 12,183 feet, the only time to do work is during the summer. Park Service staff and the contractor will do their best to complete this major roadwork in a timely manner, on budget, and allow access to visitors. Following is important information about the upcoming road work.
由于脊岭路海拔高达12,183英尺（约3,713米），施工只能在夏季进行。国家公园管理局的工作人员和承包商将竭尽全力，确保此项重大道路修缮工程按时、按预算完成，并尽量减少对游客通行的影响。以下是有关此次道路施工的重要信息：
From April 1 through May 24, Trail Ridge Road will be closed at Deer Ridge Junction approximately 8 miles west of Estes Park at the junction of U.S. Highways 34 and 36. The closure will be in effect from Mondays at 6:00 a.m. through Saturdays at 6:00 a.m. The road will be open on Saturdays and Sundays.
4月1日至5月24日期间，脊岭路将在鹿岭路口（位于埃斯蒂斯帕克以西约8英里处，美国34号与36号高速公路交汇点）实行封闭。封闭时间为每周一早上6点至周六早上6点。周六和周日道路正常开放。
Weather permitting, Trail Ridge Road will open on the Friday before Memorial Day, May 25, not prior, due to construction.
如天气条件允许，脊岭路将于阵亡将士纪念日（5 月 25 日）前的周五开放，因施工原因，此前不会提前开放。
From May 29 through June 29, work will take place from Deer Ridge Junction to Rainbow Curve. During this phase, park visitors can expect 20 to 30 minute delays. There may be multiple areas of construction occurring concurrently and in that case the combined delay time will not exceed 60 minutes.
5月29日至6月29日期间，施工将在鹿岭路口至彩虹弯路段进行。在此阶段，公园游客可能会遇到20至30分钟的通行延误。若遇多个施工区域同时作业，累计延误时间将不超过60分钟。
From July 5 through the end of the season, night closures from Forest Canyon Overlook to Alpine Visitor Center will occur. Night closures will be in effect from 10:00 p.m. through 6:00 a.m., beginning Sunday evening and ending Friday morning. Night closures will not occur on Friday and Saturday nights. Due to high traffic on Trail Ridge Road during the day, night work is the only way the contractor can finish the project during the summer. Federal Highway Administration counters located at Forest Canyon have indicated only a dozen vehicles typically travel over Trail Ridge Road during these times.
7月5日至施工季结束期间，森林峡谷观景台至高山游客中心路段将实行夜间封闭。封闭时间为每周日晚上10点至周五早上6点。周五和周六夜间不封闭。由于脊岭路白天交通流量较大，承包商为确保能在夏季完成项目，仅能采取夜间施工的方式。联邦公路管理局在森林峡谷设有计数器，数据显示，通常在这些时段内仅有十几辆车通过脊岭路。
From July 5 through the end of the season, in addition to night closures, park visitors can expect 20 to 30 minute delays on Trail Ridge Road. There may be multiple areas of construction occurring concurrently, and in that case the combined delay time will not exceed 60 minutes. Although the majority of work will be done at night, some work, such as resurfacing, can only be done during the day due to temperature requirements.
7月5日至施工季结束期间，除夜间封闭外，公园游客在脊岭路预计还会有20至30分钟的延误。若遇多个施工区域同时作业，累计延误时间将不超过60分钟。尽管大部分工作将在夜间进行，但由于温度要求，部分工作（如路面重新铺设）仅能在白天进行。
All closures apply to cyclists as well. Cyclists should be prepared for rough road conditions.
所有封闭措施同样适用于骑行者。骑行者需做好应对颠簸路况的准备。
Conditions permitting, Old Fall River Road should open on June 30. Old Fall River Road will remain open at night with current one way status allowing travel from east to west only.
如条件允许，老瀑布河路将于6月30日开放。该路段将在夜间开放，保持目前的单向通行状态，仅允许从东向西行驶。
The Federal Highway Administration awarded a $10.1 million contract to Kiewit Western Company and is administrating this project on behalf of the National Park Service. Kiewit was the contractor for the successful, major Bear Lake Road reconstruction project that took place in the park during 2003 and 2004. Funds are from the Federal Lands Highway Program.
联邦公路管理局已与基维特西部公司签订了一份价值1010万美元的合同，并授权其代表国家公园管理局管理此项目。基威特公司在2003至2004年间就成功承建了公园内熊湖路的大型重建项目。该项目资金来源于联邦土地公路计划。
