In Wyoming, much of I-80 is closed due to a Rolling Closure and Winter Weather Conditions. Over 350 Miles of I-80 between Evanston and Cheyenne are closed.

As of 1:30 PM, the estimated reopening times for I-80 were between 10-12 hours.

Many other Wyoming roads are closed due to Rolling Closures, wind, and winter weather conditions.

According to the Wyoming Department of Transportation, a Rolling Closure occurs when a town is at capacity, which can happen during a long duration closure. The closure will be "rolled back" to the next town to avoid stranding travelers in a location with adequate services, However, the road may be open leading away from the affected area.
