Interstate 70 is back open at the Eisenhower Tunnel in both directions after multiple traffic crashes early Thursday evening.

The Colorado State Patrol, at about 5:30 p.m., urged drivers to avoid the I-70 mountain corridor approaching the tunnel in both directions. Loveland Pass was also closed because of traffic collisions.

It’s the second afternoon in a row that the eastbound lanes of the highway have been shutdown at the tunnel for safety reasons after crashes.

CDOT traffic cameras show snow-covered roads along the stretch between Silverthorne and Georgetown with long lines of traffic waiting for the highway to reopen.

Snow accumulations in the mountains on Thursday called for up to three inches in some areas, according to the National Weather Service.
