Have you paid the $9 toll to beat ski traffic on Interstate 70? Here's how that money adds up.
All those tolls add up: From several digital dimes to pass through each U.S. 36 toll point to $9 or more to beat ski traffic on Interstate 70, Front Range drivers paid nearly $20 million to use Colorado’sBut the pandemic’s effects, including a transformation of commuting habits for many workers, reduced traffic in some of those lanes — and cut significantly into that money flow, which is still recovering.
Express lane numbers on C-470 and U.S. 36 have been on the upswing, The Post’s analysis found, with U.S. 36 toll-lane use up 61% in the first half of this year compared to early 2021, and C-470 up about 90%. But U.S. 36 was still below 2019 levels. Plenary manages U.S. 36 and the I-25 Central reversible express lanes to downtown as part of a long-term public-private partnership in which it also built one phase of the U.S. 36 expansion project between Denver and Boulder, completed in 2016. It pockets the toll revenue — and is responsible for paying off project debt.Since the pandemic began in 2020, Plenary has had to eat revenue declines compared to 2019 that add up to $18.
Its first segment was the reversible lanes running up the middle of I-25 from downtown to U.S. 36, which opened in 2006. In the last decade, five more corridors and segments have opened: on U.S. 36 all the way to Boulder, two more segments on I-25 from U.S. 36 north to E-470, on C-470 and on I-70 in the mountains near Idaho Springs .
