FRISCO | Colorado Department of Transportation officials are now working on their next move to maximize the capacity of the Interstate-70 mountain corridor.

A new peak-period shoulder lane will use the asphalt outside the existing highway lanes to create a reversible third lane that can be used to help improve traffic in either direction.

According to the Summit Daily (https://tinyurl.com/nocwnrj ), the lane will run from U.S. Highway 40 all the way through to the Twin Tunnels near Idaho Springs.
