CDOT Completes Rock Bolting on Hwy 3 Near Durango

News Link
There have been 5 accidents caused by rockfall on this stretch of highway in the past 10 years. With an average of 8,700 vehicles per day on the highway and an average passenger load of 1.5, the incident rate is about 1 in 9 million, the same rate as the average for the whole state of Colorado. Maybe this mitigation work will knock the rate down a bit.
