Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 18, RTD will detour Route 225/225T and temporarily close bus stops on a stretch of Baseline Road from 55th Street to Gaptor Road as part of a coordinated effort with the city of Boulder.

Starting this month, RTD's Board of Directors is moving ahead with a new structure to its committees, changes that the 15-member group approved late last year. The approach establishes four standing committees and a separate, independent audit committee. It also allows public commentary to be provided at and before committee meetings.

If RTD’s outreach coordinator for individuals experiencing homelessness looks familiar to the agency’s customers, that’s because they may have seen him before: on Route 15, on the 16, the 0, the 42. For the past five years, Alton L. Reynolds Jr. has shared his warm countenance and calm demeanor with the public while working as a bus operator.

RTD has debuted an enhanced Service Alerts system that allows for signups down to the stop level – and notifications can now be sent by text message, a change that customers have long been requesting.

In a coordinated effort with the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), RTD will offer University of Colorado A Line service on a modified schedule the evening of Monday, Jan. 10, for planned work.
