We support the responsible restoration of historic Needle's Eye Tunnel bringing access, economic development, and the reduction of congestion along the I-70 corridor.
The goal of the Needle's Eye Tunnel restoration process is to assist in restoring this historic landmark and preserving as much of the original road as possible. Opening the Needle's Eye Tunnel will allow thousands of vehicles per month to travel quickly and safely to the Grand Valley promoting economic development and greatly reducing congestion and
pollution along the I-70 corridor.
As mandated by Federal Law passed Aug 1, 2002:
"If requested by one or more of the Colorado Counties of Grand, Gilpin, and Boulder, the Secretary shall provide technical assistance and otherwise cooperate with respect to repairing the Rollins Pass road in those counties sufficiently to allow two-wheel-drive vehicles to travel between Colorado State Highway 119 and U.S. Highway 40."
