Transportation Planning Partner:
It is a pleasure to present the Colorado Department of Transportation's Fiscal Year 2004 Annual
Report and 2005 Fact Book.
I believe you will find these publications useful and very beneficial as you seek to access Colorado's
transportation facts, departmental highlights and contact information. I would encourage you to call or
write our Public Relations Office if you have questions or comments regarding the information in
these documents so the staff may continue their efforts to provide the most valuable, accurate
information.
I hope you will enjoy reviewing our FY 2004 Annual Report and 2005 Fact Book and the successes
and challenges reported throughout.
Sincerely,
Agl-•
Tom Norton
