The #RTDBoard has voted to BAN ad wraps from transit vehicle windows!

This is a MASSIVE victory for riders - thank you so much to Director Paglieri for leading this initiative and for the Directors who supported it!

Happy Birthday to RTD's Rail System!

On this day, October 7th 1994, RTD reintroduced Denver to rail transit, with trains running between 30th & Downing and I-25 & Broadway (now part of the D and L Lines).

This was just the beginning, and the story for rail is far from over!

We are very saddened to learn of the passing of ex-@RideRTD Director and Mayor of Golden, Marjorie Sloan.

Our thoughts are with Director Sloan’s family, friends and co-workers at this difficult time.

With regular heritage service on multiple lines, Milan is still the place to go for those that want to get an idea of what Denver’s streetcars were like.

As June draws to a close, we appreciate whoever is in charge at Union Station for the rainbow illuminations.

The fight for equality goes on…

A @RideRTD flashback to July 2000 when what is now today’s D Line was extended to Littleton Mineral Station. #GDTMapVault

Happy Monday!

It appears that yesterday’s #DenverPride parade along 17th Ave was a big success.

With #ColfaxBRT coming online in 2027, should the parade be permanently switched to 17th Ave so that BRT can help get guests to, from & around future events without disruption?

Led by Board Chair Julien Bouquet and fellow Director Michael Guzman, RTD staff (and a bus) parade down 17th St as part of #DenverPride.

Happy Pride!

After the #FRPRDistrict voted unanimously this morning, it was confirmed that all six parties have signed the #NorthwestRail Joint Service IGA.

It’s another step towards rail service from Denver to Boulder and Longmont that voters approved in 2004!

but they also approved:

- $8M of contracts without one question

The IGA passed!

Approval from the #RTDBoard was 14-0 (Dir. Harwick was absent).

Another step forward for the Boulder / Longmont train.

The #ColfaxBRT project is installing another bus stop arch tomorrow night at 7pm.

After the #RTDBoard meeting, head down to Nob Hill Inn (420 E Colfax Ave) to watch.

Another reason to tune into tomorrow’s special #RTDBoard meeting at 3pm is that the Directors are voting to end this nonsense. #ByeByeLamar #RTDAdvertWatch #RateMyTrain Score: 0/10

Here’s @richardbamber.bsky.social asking you to contact your RTD Director to ask them to support the #NorthwestRail Joint Service IGA that will get trains running to Broomfield, Boulder, Longmont & even Fort Collins by 2029.
