TONIGHT, join us at 6pm for our September #GDTMonthlyMeeting.
Got some big #DenverTransit news, election advocacy, insights from 🇨🇭SBB, and a discussion on #TransitToRedRocks with our guest speaker, @EanThomasTafoya of @GreenLatinos!
RSVP Here: https://t.co/40FZfn68D8
@IIIRedPandazIII @nbminor @Colo_Rail Taking baby steps toward an S-Bahn in a future where #DenverTransit has stronger credibility + state funding is exactly the idea!
We agree - #RTDCommuterRail is commuter rail in name only with frequent, all-day service. In reality, it is already #RegionalRail or #SuburbanRail.
Everyone who's frustrated/interested in #DenverTransit should attend @RideRTD's Board Meeting tonight at 5:30PM.
Public comment is right at the start. If you've got a point on accountability/transparency with operations/rider experience, now is the time!

#ColfaxBRT will cost ~$260M, ~$26M/mile.
Crucially important, but 1 corridor cannot be the extent of #DenverTransit ambition for the 2020's.
#RapidRide's x10 enhanced bus lines built between 2010 and 2026 are due to cost ~$850M over 16 years, $13M/mile adjusted for inflation.
Check out the AWESOME pedbike upgrades on Larimer St!
But what about the #transit?
@DenverDOTI ALSO planned a E/W crosstown #Transitway as well for Larimer, but shifted it over to Blake & Market.
100% agree with the move, but we need an update on the #DenverTransit piece too!
Saw that the Larimer Street Bridge recently opened so I went and tested it out. @DenverDOTI made something nice.
RSVP for our Monthly Meeting this Thursday at 6PM!

Join in to discuss #BuildFRPR and incoming state legislation, #DenverTransit as a #CoreAlternative to #WideningPena, the #DowntownBusPlan, and #TransitSafety.
#GDTMeetingAlert
@nbminor @DENAirport @flySFO @SFBART @MikeJohnstonCO The Peña Blvd Transportation and Mobility Master Plan officially aims to:
1. Promote a shift to more sustainable modes
2. Enhance safety
3. Reduce crashes
4. Address equity and barriers to opportunity
Investing in #DenverTransit will support this, #OneMoreLane will not!
GDT is STRONGLY opposed to the current #CarCentric planning for expanding motor vehicle access to @DENAirport.
Will cost Denverites at least $75M!

Read our case for why #DenverTransit should be studied as a #CoreAlternative to #1MoreLane on #PeñaBlvd.
@RideRTD We at GDT are strong supporters of using #ZeroFareForBetterAir as an outreach program to find new riders, and this appears to be working on the #BusNetwork as well as the A, G, N, and W Lines.
But #Fares are not the biggest problem for #DenverTransit today, it's #ServiceQuality.
RSVP for tonight's 6PM GDT Meeting at Cadence Union Station! #GDTMeetingAlert
Two huge #DenverTransit topics:
1. #PenaBlvdWidening vs. #ALineExpansion
2. #BuildFRPR "bare bones"? What version of #FrontRangePassengerRail can we support?
All welcome!

This Thursday, #GDTMeetingAlert, RSVP here!
Help us tackle some HUGE #DenverTransit questions, they don't come much bigger:
1. #PenaBlvdWidening vs. #ALineExpansion
2. #BuildFRPR "bare bones"? What version of #FrontRangePassengerRail can we support?

#OneMoreLane on Pena Blvd is NOT going to solve airport congestion; may induce MORE car journeys!
Join us and our partners at the @DenBicycleLobby to ask @MikeJohnstonCO and City Council to expand #DenverTransit to @DENAirport.
Prioritize #SustainableGrowth & #EquitableGrowth!
Last week @DenBicycleLobby and @GreatDenTransit sent a letter to @MikeJohnstonCO and City Council asking them to fully study improvements to the A-line before funding the expansion of Pena Blvd.

Great advocacy video from Seattle on why cities need to get #TransitConnections right in Downtown.
There's no denying #SeattleTransit has surpassed #DenverTransit in nearly every way, but right now,
@SoundTransit is on the verge of making a HUGE mistake.
Here's a condensed version of our walk along the very bad Sounder/Amtrak to North of CID Transfer that is being proposed as a replacement for the transit hub promised to voters in ST3.
10 Minutes and 52 seconds not including time to get to the platform or wait for the train.
@nexton9news @KyleClark @Marshall9News @RideRTD @DENAirport Instead of zombie thinking where we insistently "press play" on highway schemes like #PenaBlvd, let's make sure we don't miss out on smarter #DenverTransit projects.
The #ALine is already a success, but if we keep investing in it, it could do so much more to build ridership!
"We can meaningfully build on transit ridership and on transit culture by getting the A-Line right" - @jamesflattum, GDT Cofounder.
Read attached for cost/benefit insights from our own @RBamber and @iBikeCommute pushing for #DenverTransit to @DENAirport to be taken seriously.
Congestion now builds at more times of the day as Peña, the original access road to Denver International Airport, struggles to keep up with traffic growth https://t.co/RuZcrVq3UY
Calling all fellow #DenverUrbanists and #DenverTransit nerds:
This is the big one - the final @VivaStDenver Sunday of 2023 is this weekend, and they still need volunteers!
Visit the OP link to find out how you can support!
We’ve spent much of our summer asking you to volunteer at @VivaStDenver and the LAST event, this Sunday, August 6... is our final ask 🫡

All #DenverTransit riders: dial into RTD's Board Meeting tonight at 5:30PM MT to share your perspective on key transit issues!
Public comment happens within the first 15 mins with a full 3 mins/person - might be the best way to be heard by RTD Mgmt!

Our congrats go out to @MikeJohnstonCO, @ChrisForDenver, and @DarrellBWatson whose election races have been called!
We look forward to working with each of you on advancing #DenverTransit in the city, AFTER a well-deserved breather.
To review, here's our top 5 priorities:
A mayor who is serious about #DenverTransit would support:
1. Transit #SignalPriority
2. Upgrade 100% of bus stops to #ADACompliance
3. Accelerate rollout of #BRT
4. Fund the #LLineExtension to 38th & Blake
5. #ALineDoubleTracking for higher frequencies instead of widening Pena
Hope to see #denvertransit enthusiasts tonight @RideRTD’s final open house on its proposed fare changes. Can’t join? Visit a pop-up at a station or community event or peruse the recommendation and leave a public comment online! https://t.co/2xXRp0YLCE
