Constantly Improving Your Journey
More than 30 years after the first section of E470 opened, our roadway has grown into a mature, well‑traveled corridor—one we’re committed to caring for long‑term.
Through ongoing master planning, we pinpoint what the road needs next. That includes maintaining what’s here, upgrading what’s aging, and preparing for future expansion. It’s how we stay ahead of wear and tear, support growing communities, and keep your trip smooth, safe, and reliable for decades to come.
Entering the Next Phase of E470
Gartrell/E470 Interchange Expansion
Construction is underway to expand the Gartrell Road bridge over E470, improving traffic flow, safety, and access for everyone moving through southeast Aurora. The project adds capacity and multimodal features designed to keep you moving with confidence—now and into the future.

Our road works hard every day, and we work right alongside it. E470 is continuously maintained through a series of planned projects that keep the pavement smooth, the structures strong, and the systems behind the scenes running reliably.

Traveling E470 is about to get even more convenient.
E470 has partnered with Applegreen, a leading highway service plaza operator, to bring new travel plazas to key locations along the tollway. These modern facilities will give travelers a convenient place to refuel, recharge, grab a meal, shop, and take a break while on the road.
