DIA will not be getting FAA $ to expand Peña Blvd. That means they will likely ask Denver taxpayers to pay billions of our DRCOG $. That would sacrifice $ for road safety & safe routes to schools projects for generations to come. It’s not a fair ask.

FAA “will not fund any portion” of widening to reduce jams on DIA’s overloaded Peña Boulevard
“As we look at our increasing numbers of travelers, it is becoming very, very clear we’re not going to be able to accommodate them until we do something to Peña.”
