The HPTE operates as a government-owned business within the Department and is a division of CDOT. The goal of the HPTE is to pursue innovative means of more efficiently financing important surface transportation infrastructure projects that will improve the safety, capacity and accessibility of the surface transportation system; can feasibly be commenced in a reasonable amount of time; will allow more efficient movement of people, goods and information throughout the state; and will accelerate the economic recovery of the state. Such innovative means of financing projects includes, but aren’t limited to, public-private partnerships, operations concession agreements, user fee-based project financing, and availability payment and design-build contracting.

It operates as a government- owned business within the Department. The Colorado Transportation Commission serves as the Colorado Bridge Enterprise Board. The purpose of the CBE is to finance, repair, reconstruct and replace bridges designated as structurally deficient or functionally obsolete and rated “poor” by CDOT. In order to accomplish this goal, the CBE may issue revenue bonds or contract with any other governmental or nongovernmental source of funding for loans or grants. A bridge safety surcharge has been implemented through vehicle registration fees and all funds collected through the surcharge are placed in a “bridge special fund.” The CBE has initiated the bond program to accelerate the completion of Colorado’s worst bridges. 10 General Information Colorado Aeronautical Board The seven-member Colorado Aeronautical Board was created by statute in 1988 and works closely with the 76 public-use airports in Colorado to maintain, develop and improve the state’s aviation system. CDOT’s Aeronautics Division, created in 1991, supports Colorado’s general aviation community through fuel tax entitlement funds, a discretionary aviation grant program and long-range system planning in partnership with Colorado’s general aviation airports. The Colorado Aeronautical Board provides direction and oversight to CDOT Aeronautics.

Constructing a spontaneous shrine allows a mourner to create a meaningful narrative ofthe deceased's life, giving structure and significance to a loss that may seem chaotic or meaningless in the immediate aftermath. These vernacular memorials also function as focal points for continued IV communication with the departed and interaction with a community ofmourners that blurs distinctions between public and private spheres.

  • Are Roadside Crosses in Poland a Religious Or Cultural Expression?
    religions Article Are Roadside Crosses in Poland a Religious or Cultural Expression? Lucyna Przybylska Faculty of Oceanography and Geography, Uniwersytet Gda´nski,80-309 Gda´nsk,Poland; [email protected] Abstract: The paper contributes to the discourse on roadside memorialisation in the countries of Christian heritage in Europe, Australia, and North America. The aim of the paper is to assess the social perception of the motivation of people constructing roadside crosses at the places of fatal car accidents along public roads in Poland. Is it religious, cultural or both religious and cultural? The uniqueness of this survey lies in its representativeness of the population of one country and the religiosity variable incorporated into a public opinion poll. The study proves that there exists a relationship between one’s declaration of faith and the perception of memorial crosses. Believers more often than atheists opt for both a religious and a cultural meaning of roadside crosses. Atheists and agnostics more often than believers associate roadside crosses only with a cultural meaning—the custom of marking places of death with crosses. Keywords: memorial crosses; Poland; representative poll; roadside memorials; religiosity; road- side crosses 1. Introduction Roadside memorialisation of people who died in motor vehicle accidents has become a worldwide phenomenon. Fresh flowers, candles, religious symbols, and photos of Citation: Przybylska, Lucyna. 2021. the deceased have been placed at the sites of such accidents. This commemoration of Are Roadside Crosses in Poland a road accident fatalities has led to the appearance of numerous academic publications on Religious or Cultural memorials, which have been referred to in various ways—as roadside death memorials Expression?

Each memorial prominently displayed the fallen trooper’s name, highway-patrol designation, rank, badge number, year of death, and a biographical plaque. An atheist group and its members sued the State, claiming that the government’s accommodation of this private speech violated the Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution and demanding the removal of these memorials. The United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit agreed, holding that the memorials could not remain and denying rehearing en banc by a 5-4 vote.

  • Courts Mistakenly Cross-Out Memorials: Why the Establishment Clause Is Not Violated by Roadside Crosses
    NOTE COURTS MISTAKENLY CROSS-OUT MEMORIALS: WHY THE ESTABLISHMENT CLAUSE IS NOT VIOLATED BY ROADSIDE CROSSES I. INTRODUCTION Mollie Mishoe lost her husband in a fatal car accident on August 3, 2007, a few months before their fiftieth wedding anniversary.1 For Mollie and her children, the grieving process included erecting two roadside crosses at the site of the accident, to memorialize their beloved husband and father, Bill Mishoe.2 This location was the last spot Bill was alive, and the cross memorial is a place the family goes to remember and feel close to him again.3 The Mishoes have become spiritually connected to the site of the accident, and to the cross memorial they have placed there.4 This is the place where they can still feel Bill’s presence—a place where they can heal.5 For them, this memorial has become “sacred[,] but not necessarily religious.”6 The Mishoes have maintained this memorial for three and a half years, “trim[ming] the weeds around the crosses, and chang[ing] out the wreath and flowers on them.”7 In February 2011, the Mishoes learned 1.
