Mary Myers doesn’t have an average commute to work, but it’s better than it used to be. Myers lives halfway up Big Thompson Canyon west of Loveland, Colo., in a cabin purchased by her grandmother in the 1940s. She drives a winding two-lane road seven miles into town. It’s just 20 minutes on a good day, but the commute became impossible after a September 2013 flood erased most of U.S. Highway 34 through the canyon, along with several key bridges.
