Summary
Widening Peña Boulevard is still very much on the table, but DIA officials have recently agreed to explore options beyond just making more room for cars. Could a dedicated bus lane be in the highway’s future? Editor-in-chief of The Lever David Sirota joins host Bree Davies to talk about all the ways to get to DIA. Also, they dig into the latest numbers on aggressive driving and Colorado’s very bad road rage problem. Then, Water World’s brand new Summit Canyon opens this week and David has thoughts about it! Bree mentioned the Peña Boulevard expansion project’s open house happening July 23 at the Green Valley Ranch Rec Center and Greater Denver Transit’s analysis of the project.
