RTD is proposing eliminating the 33 and ending service to Flatirons Mall along with other small changes to service
Wednesday, June 5 at 6 pm
Broomfield Community Center, Lakeshore Room
280 Spader Way
Broomfield
Bus: All service ends by 7 pm.
People who take the bus to Flatirons Mall will probably not be able to attend this meeting.
Thursday, June 6 at 7:15 pm
Rude Recreation Center
2855 W Holden Place
Denver
The W light rail line and multiple buses (1, 15L, 16, 30, 31, 33) run near here as this is near the Decatur-Federal Station. However, this area is not very walkable. The 33 is the route that is going to be cut. RTD is proposing replacing it with a Flexride route.
In good news, the 4 may start running on Saturday on August. If you support that change, it may be worth your time to attend a meeting or send a message to RTD in support. There are always people who complain about any increase in service, so it is good to let RTD know that bus riders want more service.
If you cannot attend a meeting, you can send a comment to service.change@rtd-denver.com.

Colorado Rail Passenger Association Annual Meeting
Saturday, April 27, 8:30 to noon
The Guild, Englewood Town Center
3435 S Inca Way
Englewood
Light Rail: C, D
Bus: 0, 35, 51
ColoRail is electing five new board members and is hosting multiple guests. These include Amtrak's Colorado Representative, the project director from Colorado's Passenger Rail Commission, and the Sierra Clubs Transportation team leader. There will also be a of rail caps and tee shirts to benefit small railroads.
ColoRail has a lot of members, and is somewhat democratic. As such it has had some significant successes in the past. But the board needs more people of color, more women and more young people to really energize those members and achieve transformative successes.

RTD rail is free on April 27
The G Line is finally opening on Friday, April 26 at 10 am and will be free all that day and the day after when all of RTD's rail lines will be free as well.
There will also be station parties at four stations:
41st and Fox
Clear Creek and Federal
Olde Town Arvada
Wheat Ridge and Ward
I am wondering if the the people around Ward Road is going to get better bus service now that they are connected into the broader system.

Boulder County wants to spend a lot of money on special projects while we still don't have adequate base service in Boulder County. The road widening funds hidden in the BRT projects would be enough to fund adequate transit in Longmont and to improve service between Lafayette and surrounding communities, including better salaries for bus drivers. In fact, providing adequate service in our neighborhoods would make it easier to find the bus drivers we need to provide that service.
