Express lanes??? Again???

That's the definition of insanity.

It didn't fix 25 through Denver. It didn't fix 36. It's not a solution.

It's a pathetic cop out on the part of CDOT that doesn't fix a darn thing.

(Not aimed at any of the CDOT employee's on the board)

It’s a money maker... so they like it. It’s not really about solving congestion...

Didn't fix eastbound I-70 from Empire through Idaho Springs either.

CDOT doesn't plan ahead except for new scams to steal taxpayer money.

Why don't they just call it an toll road? Toll lanes? Or "You Pay My Way Highway"? Bastids sent me a bill in the mail 24 hours before it would incur charges for paying late. Luckily I remembered I went through there without ever paying and called on the phone. I paid by credit card. I got the bill the next day. It is a scam and the bastids that came up with it should be hanging by the neck from their own creation. I hope somebody sabotages it with a drone blocking the camera.

State growth on the roads are insane, now removing frontage in places with their exhorbitant priced tolls. I bet theyd demo highway down from loveland if they could just to force you onto that pathetic excuse for a major highway north i25 is.

Any "retired" CDOT bigwigs find new jobs at the toll companies yet?

I call them suicide lane because if you travel the speed limit in those lanes during heavy traffic others will jump in front of you with no warning because there is no separation between the lanes other then some lines.


I spoke with CDOT about the Dougles County toll lane and asked what percentage of feedback was in support on the toll lanes. They explained that since only people apposed speak up they don’t really worry about that metric because they deem it false.

What a bunch of snowflake weasels, they can't accept that perhaps NOBODY likes these toll lanes.

The toll lane is a double tax, we paid taxes to have that toll lane built, then we pay a fee to use a lane we already paid for.

Yeah, like these worthless 'crats need more money after ripping us off for decades. They probably got kickbacks while they were "serving the public good" too.

Just what we don't need!!! Express lane is not going to do shit for the traffic up this way.

Pretty much sums it up.
