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.

RTD I-225 Rail Line Montview Alignment Change
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE RTD Board Approves Moving Planned I-225 Rail Station from Montview to Fitzsimons Parkway CU Officials Commit to Shuttle Service from Fitzsimons Station to Anschutz Medical Campus DENVER, June 25, 2013—The Regional Transportation District (RTD) Board of Directors has approved a request from the University of Colorado (CU) Anschutz Medical Campus to relocate the planned Montview Station on the I-225 Rail Line to a new location at Fitzsimons Parkway. CU officials requested the station be moved due to concerns for adequate mitigation of electromagnetic interference (EMI) and vibration near sensitive research equipment at current and future medical buildings. This decision by the Board of Directors will allow the I-225 project team to identify environmental impacts and propose mitigation before moving forward with design and construction. “We will continue to collaborate with our partners to ensure that our project meets the needs of the greater community,” said RTD General Manager Phil Washington. “We will develop a solution that keeps the project moving forward while staying on budget.” During the 2007 - 2009 environmental and early design process, RTD and CU evaluated options for mitigating EMI and vibration from the train, but found that previous measures identified might not be sufficient for future technologies. Additional methods of mitigation were considered but found to be too costly. The project team aims to have a new alignment and station site determined, with design underway, by the end of the year. The I-225 Rail Line is a 10.5-mile light rail extension that will travel through the City of Aurora and make key connections to the Anschutz Medical Campus and the future VA Hospital.

Author: Planning & Development Services Department PLANNING FOR TOD Table of Contents Preface 1 1. Background Information 3 2. The Plan 7 3. Zoning Guidance and Design Guidelines 15 4. Implementation 25 Acknowledgements 27 FINAL DRAFT December, 2012 | i PLANNING FOR TOD Preface The Nine Mile Station Area Plan is one in a series of station area plans prepared by the City of Aurora to promote transit-oriented development (TOD) around the existing and planned rail transit stations. This plan presents the long term vision for the station area, illustrated with fundamental concept and land use framework diagrams. By planning in advance for potential redevelopment, problems relating to piecemeal infill development in fragmented ownership patterns can be addressed. This station area plan is based on fundamental concepts derived from the policy directions of the 2009 Aurora Comprehensive Plan. The plan was developed in consultation with the property owners, residents in the adjacent neighborhoods, the Regional Transportation District (RTD), and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). This plan defines planning principles, planning and design concepts, land use recommendations, design guidelines, and implementation strategies (e.g., rezoning and public improvements) for the defined study area. The intent of this plan is to identify opportunities for urban-scale, compact, mixed-use development that is transit-supportive, and to develop strategies to implement a common vision.
