Directions from Airport to Boulder
There are two routes to get to Boulder from the Denver International Airport. The quickest route is via E-470 N. Be aware that this route has tolls. If you want to take this route, you need to make sure that your rental agreement is set up to handle paying for toll roads. The second route is via I-70 W, I-270 W, and US-36 W. It takes longer depending on the time of day, but has no toll.
Both routes can be found at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1kH5jhuz9ck_7fDuV9SY-b-8ELbbbPmdn&usp=…

There will be plenty of attendees with rental cars, so if you do not have your own means of transportation, please coordinate rides with those that do or plan to take a taxi or Uber.
NOTE: There will be construction on Valmont Road starting November 6 with a closure (vehicle, bike, pedestrian and transit) between 34th and Wilderness Place, with local traffic only between Foothills Parkway and Wilderness Place. Access to Center Green Dr. will only be available from the east. The UCAR shuttle service expects to be able to operate on the published schedule. For more information and a map of the closure, see the City of Boulder website.
