Colorado on Friday will begin fining drivers $75 for using the Interstate 70 express lanes in the mountains when they’re closed or weaving in and out to get around traffic, among other violations.During a new safety enforcement program’s month-long grace period, more than 5,600 drivers received warnings in the mail after they were detected using an automated system of cameras and sensors, the Colorado Department of Transportation says. Now drivers who receive notices will have to pay the fine, which increases to $150 after 20 days.“The number of warnings issued during the grace period is extremely concerning,” CDOT spokesman Tim Hoover said in a news release. “We don’t want to see so many people get fines — we just want roadway users to follow the express lane rules so everybody can get to their destinations safely.”The express toll lanes occupy the narrow left shoulder on each side of I-70 along a 13-mile corridor from Empire to east of Idaho Springs. ...

But the biggest change to how Denver handles refuse — free citywide compost service that could redirect everything from banana peels to tree limbs to a composting facility — is only now ready to start rolling out to residents.City officials have high hopes for what the service changes will mean for landfill diversion rates and greenhouse gas emissions in the long term, but most Denverites should sit tight with the size trash bins they have now, those same officials caution.
