Bus & train users in the Denver Metro area will soon be able to avoid stuff like this on their trips as the @RideRTD Board has voted to ban advertizing which covers vehicle windows.

It’s the end of a 3-year campaign & I’m grateful to all who supported it including @greatdentransit.bsky.social

It’s clear that bold plans & a serious attention to details are needed if transit is to bounce back in Denver.
