Approval was conditioned on expanded monitoring and annual reporting and a directive that communications refer to the lane consistently — with a board target to standardize signage and public messaging by mid‑2026.

The permit change was requested by the Colorado Transportation Investment Office (CTIO), which manages the express‑lane operations on I‑70. Piper Darlington, director of CTIO, told the commissioners that CTIO’s traffic analyses showed the shoulder lane “was not meeting the needs of the corridor,” and that traffic patterns since 2019 and especially after COVID have made weekend‑only hours insufficient.

County staff said the 10‑41 review applies 35 criteria (21 general plus 14 additional arterial‑highway criteria) and found several criteria not met. Amy Saxon, Clear Creek County staff leading the review, said criterion 5 (adverse effect on the local government economy) and criterion 6 (undue financial burden on residents) were found not met; staff recommended approval with conditions addressing safety monitoring, environmental reporting and a renewed collaborative stakeholder process (context sensitive solutions, CSS).

Key conditions the board adopted include:
- Annual monitoring and reporting on water quality (including salinity), noise (peak and off‑peak averages and spikes), air quality, mobility and safety metrics, and tolling revenues (including enforcement revenue). Staff will revisit reporting formats at a December 2025 meeting.
- CTIO must convene a CSS team and a separate incident/safety debrief team to monitor incidents, maintenance and operations.
- The county added a condition that the lane be consistently named in internal and external communications as the “peak‑period shoulder lane (PPSL)” unless the parties agree on a different name; the board requested that CTIO and other parties complete signage/branding changes and related communications by June 1, 2026, or return with a timeline for implementation.
- The permit and its conditions will be revisited when tolling operations begin for the Floyd Hill project and as part of the longer‑term 02/1935 review referenced in the original approvals.

CTIO’s presentation described traffic triggers and safety data. Alex Frank, CTIO express lanes operations manager, and Darlington said crash data did not show a statistical difference in property‑damage or fatal crashes when the lane was open versus closed, and that accident clearance times were shorter, on average, when the PPSL was open. Darlington also described a camera‑based enforcement program that issues civil penalties for closed‑lane and large‑axle violations; she said the program has reduced weaving/closed‑lane violations networkwide by roughly 85 percent and that most violators receive a single notice and do not repeat the violation.

Public comment included Joanne Sorensen, a former county commissioner, who told the board: “I think that the changes that you're proposing to the resolution are great,” while also urging continued safety study and asking that any memorandum about excess revenues be revisited with local jurisdictions.

During deliberations, commissioners pressed CTIO and staff on the 02/1935 date that appears in prior agreements and on the mechanics and timeline for changing signage and public messaging. Commissioners agreed to delegate final, non‑substantive wording edits to staff but required that substantive changes to conditions return to the board. The motion to approve Resolution 25‑46—“approve ... with the changes discussed and placed on screen”—carried on a voice vote.

Action and next steps: County staff will finalize the resolution language reflecting the agreed conditions; CTIO will begin the stakeholder communications and reporting schedules described in the MOU and resolution. The board directed staff and CTIO to continue use of the CSS process and to prepare for revisit of hours/days when Floyd Hill tolling commences.

Ending: The permit approval allows CTIO greater flexibility to open the PPSL on additional fixed and flexible days and hours, subject to the reporting and safety conditions approved by the board. The board said it expects continued updates at the December 2025 reporting meeting and further review when tolling on Floyd Hill begins.","The Clear Creek County Board of County Commissioners approved Resolution 25-46 granting a 10-41 permit amendment (Case SI2025‑001) to expand days and hours for the peak‑period shoulder lane (PPSL) on I‑70, subject to monitoring, reporting and a condition on consistent public/internal naming by mid‑2026.","actionData","errors"]
