Ten years of the Flatiron Flyer: A decade of keeping the northwest metro connected
The circulatory system of the human body is the most important system of the body. The system is responsible for carrying blood cells, oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other substances critical to keeping the rest of the body functioning through a network of arteries, arterioles, veins, venules, and capillaries. Much like how the circulatory system operates, cities function in the same way. Highways and interstates serve as the city’s arteries and veins, while collector and local streets serve as arterioles, venules, and capillaries. For the Denver metro area, one of those major arteries is the Denver-Boulder Turnpike, officially designated as US 36, home to RTD’s Flatiron Flyer (FF) service between downtown Denver or Aurora, and Boulder. On Saturday, it celebrates a monumental milestone: a decade of keeping Denver, Aurora, and Boulder connected and accessible for all.
