IDAHO SPRINGS, CO - DECEMBER 12, 2013: Traffic using one lane in the 3 lane highway makes it's way through one lane of the eastbound tunnel east of Idaho Springs, Co on December 12, 2013. The three eastbound lanes of the twin tunnels on I-70 will be fully operational for eastbound traffic going through the newly widened tunnels tonight and ready for skier traffic returning back to Denver. The Twin Tunnels project was created to alleviate congestion along the I-70 Mountain Corridor. The project includes work to expand eastbound I-70 from Floyd Hill to Idaho Springs, which included the eastbound side of the Twin Tunnels. (Photo By Helen H. Richardson/ The Denver Post)
