August 2015 Meetings

CDOT and HPTE hosted four public meetings on the Central 70 project in August 2015 to give important updates on the plans to reconstruct I-70 between Brighton Boulevard and I-225, as well as the next steps in the process to select a private partner to design, build, finance, operate and maintain the highway in northeast Denver.

The series of meetings included a telephone town hall (Aug. 18, 2015) focusing on how a public-private partnership (P3) is being explored for this project and the developer selection process. Also, public meetings were held in Commerce City (Aug. 17, 2015), Aurora (Aug. 19, 2015) and Denver (Aug. 20, 2015) to discuss both the proposed improvements to the interstate and a possible P3 to bring these improvements to Colorado. At the meetings, the public had the opportunity to provide input on this P3 process.
