CDOT is a rogue and incompetent agency. $250 million to build two toll lanes on ten miles of C-470? I can't help but notice that the contractor on that jobs seems to have purchased an entire new fleet of million dollar each earth movers. Much of the congestion on I-70 could be relieved with simple fixes. Instead of adding a virtually unused toll lane CDOT should have made the section through Idaho Springs three lanes all the time. The Eisenhower tunnel is not the bottleneck, it is the road leading up to it. I suggest firing the management at CDOT and hiring those in charge of building the bypass highway to Central City. Somehow they managed to build a beautiful four lane highway over challenging terrain for less than $40 million. I am sure CDOT would have run up a billion dollar tab.
