TheDenverChannel.com reports that one year after opening, the revenue from the US 36 and I-70 express toll lanes “is meeting expectations and [both facilities are] able to meet their financial obligations. CDOT reports that 12.9 million customers used the express lanes in 2015, based on normalized stats from the July opening through December. Nearly 24 million customers used the express lanes in 2016, which is almost double the amount from 2015.”
