I am terrified of this thought...

Anyone remember "T-Rex"? That took a decade from my memory...

Yes I lived on green Mt and had the commute to DTC and drove through the entire t-rex construction from beginning to end. Was thrilled when it finally finished. It seems it takes forever for any kind of road construction to finish.

Yeah I don't get why the onramp from santa fe doesn't have continuous second lane . Why does it drop to 1 there is plenty of room to have a continuous lane all the way to the Stupid Alameda on ramp

Also who thought that the population of Denver were smart enough to understand an off ramp in the center of a freeway ?? I25 South to 6th west with the federal exit in the middle of 6th

I first moved to Denver I lived right off Bellview and I25 during that whole fiasco , I got out of that area as fast as I could actually broke a lease to leave. I lived 3 blocks west of I25 on Bellview and just to get to my apartment from i25 could sometimes take half an hour .

Yah I think that had to be the worst road improvement project since I moved here in 96, but had to be done for sure. Now 470 near HR and the I70 one coming up may be just as bad but am hoping and praying it won't be! Are the plans still to make 70 near Brighton Blvd an underground tunnel with a park above to join commerce city back to Denver again. I read that 70 divided denver/commerce city up so much that it hurt commerce city and this is projected to help bring it back?

I think that's still the plan .. Although I liked the plan of turning i70 into a boulevard and basically creating a super highway north that was 16 lanes

When I was reading about the i70 project I read that the i70 and brighton area is the most polluted zip code in the country

Ahhhh that sounds like an amazing mover of traffic! I like that idea even better, although the tunnel/park plan would look better. But I'm all for less congestion and faster arrival times!
