    2019 FACT SHEETS Regional Transportation District On the Cover: The first on-road deployment of an autonomous vehicle (AV) made its debut as RTD’s Route 61AV at the end of January 2019. The self- driving EasyMile shuttle is 100 percent electric and will connect passengers from the 61st & Pena Station along the University of Colorado A Line to the Panasonic and EasyMile offices. The shuttle can carry up to 12 passengers and will run Monday through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., making a loop to four stops every 15 minutes at an average speed of 12 – 15 miles per hour. The goal of the project is to determine whether the autonomous vehicle could serve as a possible future first and last mile solution for transit riders. Route 61AV is a pilot project that was approved by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the newly formed Colorado Autonomous Vehicle Task Force.

  • Overview/History of Rtd Fare Structure and Pass Programs and Planned System Wide Fare Study and Equity Analysis
    OVERVIEW/HISTORY OF RTD FARE STRUCTURE AND PASS PROGRAMS AND PLANNED SYSTEM WIDE FARE STUDY AND EQUITY ANALYSIS This white paper provides background and history on RTD’s current fare structure and pass programs since 2000, as well as a planned path forward for evaluating future changes to RTD fares. This paper is divided into four sections: 1. History of RTD Fare Boundaries Structure Pre- and Post-FasTracks (2000—present) 2. RTD Pass Program Study (2017—2018) 3. RTD Fare and Fare Related Developments since 2019 4. Overview of Planned System Wide Fare Study and Equity Analysis 1. History of RTD Fare Boundaries Structure Pre- and Post-FasTracks (2000— present) Fare Structure Pre-FasTracks (20002—2013) Prior to the opening of the Southwest Corridor in 2000, distance-based fares only applied to buses. Local, Express, and Regional fares applied to buses depending on the type of service and the distance traveled. The original light rail line, between I-25/Broadway and 30th/Downing Stations was a short enough distance that only a local fare applied. When the Southwest Corridor opened, many trips that were previously made by an Express bus were then made by light rail and it was determined that those trips should pay the higher Express fare. The solution to this was a fare boundary at Hampden Avenue. Any trip crossing Hampden Avenue, between Oxford-City of Sheridan Station and Englewood Station, would be charged an Express fare. This made trips from Littleton-Mineral, Littleton-Downtown, and Oxford-City of Sheridan Stations to Downtown Denver an Express fare, as they had previously been on Express buses.
