Government at Work - Another Bridge goes nowhere?
This will likely keep a lot of people busy for the next few years, and certainly cost the taxpayers a lot of money...
This is from Nancy Lofholm in the Denver Post:
"A three-lane bridge, envisioned as the centerpiece of a $54 million highway project, is sitting between a cow pasture and a mesa as the state struggles to get rights of way to connect it to actual roads.
Residents here, who are waging a war of words in local letters to the editor, call it the 'Bridge to Nowhere.'
'We all have to wonder why they did this like this,' said Doug Ervin, whose home lies in sight of the bridge to the north. 'There is a lot of taxpayer money at risk here.'"
