doesn't really matter; most all solutions are voted down or too expensive. families cannot afford the time and $$ for a bus trip and the monorail proposed would be an answer but is even more expensive; actually for the damned tunnels proposed it may be smarter to just add alternative roadways from the city to the resorts, one to the South and one to Broomfield(Not PRBoulder).
