| April 28, 2007 | | Cost of doing nothing is substantial to Colorado’s statewide and resort community revenues. | Sitting in traffic on I-70 has become an almost expected event, whether you are a Summit County local heading to Denver on a Sunday afternoon, or a front ranger trying to get to the slopes. The Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce released a report that estimates the cost to the state of Colorado of doing nothing on this clogged Interstate is about $839 million/year. Flo Raitano, Director for the I-70 Mountain Corridor Coalition echoes the study’s findings stating that “If we don’t fix it, it’s going to be a significant economic detriment.” To learn more about the I-70 Mountain Corridor Coalition, click here.
