Box truck fire closes I-70 east ramp to C

DENVER (KDVR) — A box truck fire alongside an exit ramp from Interstate 70 to C-470 on Monday afternoon has led to the closure of the ramp.

The fire is burning at the I-70 exit ramp to C-470 east, which is exit 260, leading to large flames and a plume of black smoke that was blowing across the exit ramp.

The area had seen rain earlier, but it's unclear if that impacted the truck at all, or what had led to the fire. • A box truck on fire off the exit ramp to C-470 from I-70 eastbound on September 22, 2025.
