The E Line will operate between Union Station and Dry Creek Station, and between Lincoln Station and RidgeGate Parkway Station. The R Line will operate between Peoria and Dry Creek Station, but will not operate south of Dry Creek Station. The F Line remains suspended per COVID-19 Service Plan. Regular service on all lines will resume Monday, June 28. RTD will provide bus shuttles at these affected stations: • Dry Creek Station: Board bus shuttle at Gate B • County Line Station: Board bus shuttle at Gate C • Lincoln Station: Board bus shuttle at Gate D Customers should anticipate delays due to the maintenance and are encouraged to explore alternate routes if their trips are impacted by the rail closure. Customers who usually park at RidgeGate Parkway, Lincoln or County Line Park-n-Rides are encouraged to utilize RTD Park-n-Rides at Dry Creek, Arapahoe at Village Center, Orchard or Belleview stations to reduce the likelihood for delays. Customers must wear a mask while riding any RTD vehicle, per federal mandate. The best way to keep up to date on service impacts is to follow the RTD Twitter account at @RideRTD and to sign up for Rider Alerts.

May 2019 Proposed Service Changes
May 2019 Proposed Service Changes BUS Route 0 – South Broadway Running time analysis resulting in schedule adjustments. Route 1 – 1st Avenue Move east terminal from Birch/Virginia to Virginia/Cherry, immediately behind King Soopers at Leetsdale/Cherry for operator restroom and customer convenience. Route 15 – East Colfax This proposal is an effort to relieve passenger overloads east of Monaco to VA Hospital by adding selected trips between 9:00am and 1:00pm. Move short turn recovery location from Oneida/Colfax to Leyden/Colfax, for operator restroom access. Close to Walgreens, McDonalds, 7-11. Add weekday bus for recovery and on-time performance. 16/16L – West Colfax Running time analyses on weekend services. Route 33 – Platte Valley Due to low ridership performance, it proposed that this route service be discontinued. Current ridership performance stands at 10.3 passenger per hour, which falls below the Urban Local ridership standard. This proposal would impact approximately 55 weekday passengers. Alternative service to the Route 33 can be found in using combinations of Central and West Light Rail corridors, Routes 4, 9, 30 and 30Limited. Route 36L – Fort Logan Limited Running time analysis, for operator recovery and on-time performance. No cost impacts are anticipated. Route 44 – 44th Avenue Reroute eastbound buses via Larimer Street instead of Lawrence, between Broadway and Downing. This change consolidates service onto the historic transit corridor, instead of being split between two streets. Bus stop improvement along northbound Larimer are currently underway in support of this reroute. No cost impacts are anticipated. Route 51 – Sheridan Boulevard This proposal would, formalize the current 4-block route detour in Englewood, which was put into effect due to the City having converted a part of Elati Street into a one-way operation.

Agenda & Session Details 2015 YLG Leadership Exchange Dates: Thursday, June 18th- Saturday, June 20th Thursday, June 18th 4 pm- 5:30 pm: Walking Tour of Riverfront Park/ Platte River Valley: A History Tour guide: Amy Cara, Partner, East West Partners Denver & Incoming District Council Chair, ULI Colorado Meeting location: Terminal Bar, inside Denver Union Station, 1701 Wynkoop Street, Denver CO Session Description: Only 20 years ago, the Central Platte Valley between Denver Union Station and the South Platte River was a wasteland of abandoned rail yards. The land value was so low that surplus parking for downtown was considered a possible “highest and best use.” In the late 1990s, this 54-acre, single-owner parcel was re-envisioned through an extensive community process as a high-density urban neighborhood. In 1999, resort developer East West Partners bought 23 acres and branded it as Riverfront Park. Since then a vibrant new neighborhood has emerged focused on 19-acre Commons Park, the first major new city park in decades. Three beautifully designed new pedestrian/bike bridges cross the barriers of an Interstate, river and railroad tracks, now linking downtown, Lower Downtown and Riverfront Park to the re-emerging Highlands Neighborhood to the west. Now considered Denver’s hottest area, Riverfront Park features nearly 2,000 new condo and rental apartments in 14 buildings, along with office, restaurants and other commercial. From 2001 to 2014, Riverfront Park generated $413 million in condo sales. The latest addition is an infill, transit-oriented retirement community called Balfour at Riverfront Park. This walkable, mid-rise community is connected directly to new transit stations and to the Denver Union Station Neighborhood and Transit Hub, with which it overlaps.
