Fines for crossing solid line in and out of express lanes on I-25 start Thursday in Larimer, Weld counties

The Colorado Department of Transportation will start fining drivers $75 for illegally entering and exiting express lanes on I-25 in Larimer and Weld counties starting Thursday. Drivers who fail to pay the fine within 20 days will have the penalty increased to $150.
The Colorado Department of Transportation has installed sensors and roadside cameras on the Interstate 25 North corridor between Berthoud and Fort Collins to detect when a vehicle enters and exits express lanes. Drivers who enter and exit express lanes outside of designated areas will receive a $75 fine. The fine increases to $150 if not paid within 20 days. During a 30-day grace period that began April 7, CDOT issued 3,504 warnings to drivers. Express lanes are marked with dashed and solid lines; drivers can only enter and exit when the dashed line is on their side. The fines are part of the Express Lanes Safety and Toll Enforcement Program, which will eventually apply to all express lane corridors in the state.
