Summary<br />

http://www.coloradodot.info/programs/statewideplanning/documents/econbenefit2.pdf<br />

Provides information concerning statewide economic benefits and non‐quantifiable<br />

benefits of transportation investment in the state of Colorado. Identifies different levels<br />

of investment through differing scenarios in CDOT's 2030 Statewide Transportation<br />

Plan. Benefits quantified are primarily travel time savings, vehicle operating costs and<br />

reduced accident and injury.<br />

The authors point out that a number of other benefits would obtain from increased<br />

investment in the transportation system, but are not quantified. These include: quality<br />

of life improvements, new jobs, better access to recreation.<br />
