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. -

January 2014 Service Changes
BOARD OF DIRECTORS REPORT To: Phillip A. Washington, General Manager Date: October 10, 2013 From: Bruce Abel, Assistant General Manager GM Date: October 8, 2013 Board Meeting Date: October 15, 2013 Subject: January 2014 Service Changes RECOMMENDED ACTION It is recommended by the Operations/Customer Services Committee that the Board of Directors approve the January 2014 Service Change package as revised and summarized in Attachment A resulting in an annualized cost increase of approximately $635,500 and, further, to authorize the General Manager or his designee to execute contract amendments as necessary for private operators whose service is impacted by these changes. DISCUSSION To meet the diverse travel needs of the citizens of the District and maintain a high-performance, sustainable transit system, RTD has developed a networked family of services for which the different classes of service have different expectations of performance. We will continue adjusting services in response to changes in ridership and operational performance of the transit system as a whole while also continuing to review the impacts of the implementation of the West Corridor Light Rail Service and the associated bus service changes. Routine service changes not associated with or included in the West Corridor Service Plan are necessary to maintain system on-time performance and provide the appropriate level of service according to customer demand while we will also need to monitor customer response to the implementation of West Corridor bus and rail service and -
Rails to Real Estate Development Patterns Along
