Introduction


Roads have always been a source of fascination for me, so when I visited Colorado in August of 1990, I found that Colorado/s Roadways were not only scenic, but they were a challenge to drive as well.
But it wasn’t until I began to study & explore Colorado’s Historic Mountain Railroads that I learn not only the history of the railroads, but the roadways that grew out of the roadbed after the railroads were abandoned & dismantled.
My studies into the roadways & their histories truly began in September of 2009 when I decided to compile a complete listing of them like I had done earlier with the Mountain Passes.
I found Matt Selak’s Website “The Highways of Colorado” @ mesalek.com, and I not only found a listing & the histories of all of Colorado’s Current Highways, but also a listing & Histories of all of Colorado’s Highways going back to the Auto Motor Trails of the early 1900’s, and through my own separate research, I found Colorado’s State Primary Roads.
This caused me to not only drive & explore them for myself, but to learn everything that could about them,
By using Matt Selak’s information and format, but tweaking it to suit my needs, I am writing reports on all of the roads.
I have gone one step further in that I have included detailed instructions on how to drive & explore them.
My reports begin with the Toll Roads & end with the Auto Motor Trails as I slowly peel back the hands of time. 
I have put 5 years so far into this project, and I will be working in it for years to come.
 Notes:
1.       All of the information that are contained in these reports are as current & as accurate as I can make then with the information that I was able to obtain.
2.      The reports are written from the 1st alignment to the last known or current alignment.
3.      I have used the Delorme Atlas & Gazetteer as my main map source

4.      Some of the routing has been my best guess using the information that I have.
