Improving access to and within federal and tribal lands

MAP-21 Funding Authorized: FY 2013: $16,671,184 FY 2014: $16,796,418 FY 2015: $16,459,676 Federal land acreage as percentage of total state area: 36% Federal public road miles: 4,705.4 Number of Federal public bridges: 182 Recreational visitation: 37,590,942 visitors per year 

Highlighted Project: Guanella Pass RoadConstructed: FY 2015 Success Story: Park County Road 62 (Guanella Pass Road) starts in Grant, CO intersecting U.S. Highway 285 and heads north over Guanella Pass and into Georgetown, CO, near Interstate 70. Guanella Pass Road is one of the premier high mountain roadways close to Denver. The project consisted of major grading, retaining walls, drainage improvements, and placement of aggregate base and hot asphalt concrete paving of 6.4 miles of Guanella Pass Road. The focus of the project was improving the condition of the roadway while minimizing overall environmental impacts associated with poor drainage, raveled aggregate surfacing and wash boarding. This project, additionally, was successful in utilizing State of Colorado toll credits as FLAP match, becoming the first state in the Central Federal Lands Division to utilize this innovative financing option. This Forest Highway project reflects the successful and longstanding partnership between FHWA, USFS, Park County, and the State of Colorado. Guanella Pass Ro
