The Colorado State Patrol is also assisting with the effort that is taking place along I-225 and I-70.

According to the department’s Twitter page, their tweet along ended at around 11:30 am but they said officers will be patrolling the highway all day.

#TweetAlong While today’s tweet along has ended, that does not mean enforcement has stopped. Expect officers to be on I-225 & I-70 all day long.

Watch your speeds. Buckle up. And remember, if you see the flashing emergency lights, #MoveOver. pic.twitter.com/07myklWIGT
