US 36 Privatization 50-Year Contract to be Signed

I-70 in downtown Denver/mountains, C-470 and I-25 from Denver to Ft. Collins are all being privatized and one or more toll lanes added.
Round trip from Denver to Boulder will cost up to $28 in the express lane during rush hour. Toll cost is indexed to inflation and will rise much higher over the next half century.
The amount of profit Goldman Sachs and Plenary will make from US 36 is a CDOT secret that is being kept from the Colorado taxpayers and elected officials.
Like every other government program, public education has failed. It's time to end it.
