Lost and Found

Passengers who lose or forget something on a bus or train can call or visit RTD’s Lost & Found facilities after 12:30 p.m. on the first business day after the item is lost. Found items are kept for 10 days. If you find an item on a bus or train, please give it to the operator or an authorized RTD representative.

Bikes left on buses

Bikes accidentally left on buses are held for 20 days. Passengers may contact Lost & Found in Denver or Boulder to determine whether a lost bike has been found. The passenger must describe the bike and bus route in order for RTD to identify the correct bike. If the bike is identified, it will be tagged with the owner’s name and information, after which it can be picked up at Lost & Found.

Lost bikes will not arrive at the Denver Lost & Found until the following day, so please wait 24 hours before calling to check on a lost bike.

The Boulder Police will pick up any bikes left on buses that have not been retrieved after 20 days. They may be contacted after 20 days for bike retrieval at 303.441.3333. The Boulder Police offices are located near the Boulder Transit Center.

If the Lost & Found or Telephone Information Center (303.299.6000) is contacted shortly after the bike is left on the bus, RTD may be able to track the bus, so the owner can meet the bus and retrieve the bike sooner.

• When boarding, tell the bus operator where you will be exiting the bus.
• Sit or stand at the front of the bus.
• As you exit from the front of the bus, inform the bus operator that you will be unloading your bike.
