| Project Name: | Transportation Expansion Program (T-REX) |
| Location: | Denver, Colorado |
| Project Description: |  The
T-REX Project is a citizen-endorsed solution to replace outdated, aging
highways with modern, efficient highways and a light rail transit system.
Funded without any new or increased taxes, the $1.7 billion project will
increase mobility, enhance accessibility and transportation options, and
improve safety to the traveling public in a heavily congested, growing business
corridor. The project is a unique, landmark collaboration between the Colorado
Department of Transportation (CDOT, the Regional Transportation District
(RTD), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit
Administration (FTA), and has been shaped by extensive input from communities,
businesses, and motorists across the metro Denver area. By integrating design
and construction phases for speed, economy and innovation, the T-REX Project
has demanding goals for quality, schedule, budget, and most importantly,
minimal inconvenience to all citizens affected. |
