This dramatic expansion opens significant opportunities for development near stations along these new lines. The development that takes place around transit stations is most successful if it includes a range of housing options, including affordable housing, and community serving facilities, like quality child care centers, places to access healthy food, and services to support residents.1 Affordable housing and community benefit commercial uses are critical to combating displacement and enhance the quality of life for all residents in the region. In order to better understand what specific opportunities exist for development of community facilities, Mile High Connects contracted with Denver Shared Spaces to complete a Community Facility Scan in 2015. The scan was confined to Mile High Connects’ focus geographies: A (East)/R (I-225) Lines: 40th & Colorado, Peoria, Fitzsimons, and Colfax Stations G (Gold)/B (Northwest) Lines: 41st & Fox, Pecos Junction, Clear Creek-Federal, and Westminster Neighborhoods surrounding the W (West) Line: Sun Valley, West Colfax, Villa Park, Westwood The scan draws together multiple sources of information to understand the implications for community- benefit commercial development along transit. The intent of this exploration was not to provide an exhaustive analysis of each focus area. Rather, the resulting analysis profiles each station area or neighborhood, draws out assets and gaps, and identifies specific recommendations for commercial uses that would best complement the communities surrounding each station area. Method The methodology used for the scan included the following components: Document review of existing development plans, research publications, and market studies covering the focus areas o Findings and recommendations were synthesized with the specific filter of implications for commercial uses; complete list of documents reviewed in Appendix A. Development and analysis of ArcGIS Story Map for each focus area in partnership with the Data Initiative at Gary Community Investments; accessible at the link below2 Development of Community Benefit Org Catalog based on Colorado Secretary of State 990 data o Filtered record based on financial criteria, and sorted using zip code into the three target corridors. Resulting list included ~360 nonprofits located in and around the areas of interest to this study. Each record reviewed for: proximity to focus station areas, type of programming, space needs, and foot traffic. Accessible via the link below.3 Interviews with nonprofits serving residents in the three focus geographies o Nonprofits interviewed represent well-respected organizations with a track record of community-based work. Recommendations for commercial uses and possible partners for community-benefit commercial development within target geographies; based on analysis and interviews 1 http://bit.ly/1REQAVT 2 http://arcg.is/1HnRS53 3 http://bit.ly/1RM4DJi 2015 Community Facility Scan │ 3 A (East) Line/R (I-225) Line Focus Areas A Line Overview4 23-mile electric commuter rail line between Denver’s Union Station and Denver International Airport (DIA) 7 stations on the line: 38th & Blake, 40th & Colorado, Central Park, Peoria, Airport & 40th Blvd - Gateway Park, Peña Boulevard, and Denver Airport Opens to public in 2016 R Line Overview5 10.5-mile light rail line through Aurora; provides connections to the East and Southeast rail lines 8 stations: Peoria, Fitzsimons, Colfax, 13th Avenue, 2nd Ave-Abilene, Aurora Metro Center, Florida, and Iliff Opens to the public in 2016 A & R Focus Area Summary Taken together, this focus area differs from the 7 County Metro average in several important ways. Broadly, the neighborhoods impacted by the development of the A and R lines are well-below the average household income for the region, have a higher percentage of immigrant families, slightly more residents over 65 and under 5, and a higher percentage of households below 100% of Area Median Income.6 This is true even when including Denver’s Stapleton neighborhood, an outlier on these indicators compared to all other neighborhoods impacted by the A and R lines.7 Northwest Aurora is the area of the city with the most diverse population.8 The variety of population characteristics decreases further south and east toward the urban edge. Both the A and R lines will provide connectivity for residents of Aurora and Denver to major activity centers like the Downtown Denver, Aurora City Center, Anschutz Medical Campus, and Denver International Airport. The lines comprise a range of station types. 40th & Colorado Station

  • 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.
