Finally a good decision by govt.
My thought too
“It would have cost the Colorado Department of Transportation $200,000 to blow up the boulder with dynamite and haul it away...
...Fixing the two-lane highway will cost about $1.3 million, Polis said, but most of that money will come from emergency funds from the Federal Highway Administration.”
Not sure how that is a good decision. $200K versus $1.3 million.
I can’t believe that the cost of re-aligning the highway will be less than the cost of demolishing this rock.
Or that it won’t take a lot longer to get done. Unless they’re going to circumvent the environmental reviews, etc.
