Could $1.2 million from three local communities start a controversial highway project that $15 million from the Colorado Department of Transportation couldn’t? That`s the hope of elected officials in Broomfield, Arvada and Jefferson County, which each have given $400,000 to the Jefferson Parkway Public Highway Authority, reports the Broomfield Enterprise.

The authority`s aim is to find private companies to design, finance, build, maintain and operate a privately-owned toll road that would one day connect the Northwest Parkway in Broomfield to Interstate 70 near Golden.
