RTD will operate all A Line service at a 30-minute frequency, seven days a week, beginning Monday, Oct. 3, and continuing through Saturday, Oct. 29 while repairs are made to the railroad crossing at the intersection of Dahlia Street and Smith Road. 

The A Line normally serves stations every 15 minutes, but RTD will change that frequency to every 30 minutes as trains operate on a single track around the work zone. Regular, 15-minute service on the A Line is scheduled to resume Sunday, Oct. 30.

Trains will pass workers and equipment on or near the tracks at the Dahlia Street crossing Monday through Saturday during working hours, which begin at 7 a.m. and continue through 3 a.m. the following day. As a safety precaution, train horns will sound through the Dahlia Street crossing during working hours.

Repairs are expected to provide a long-term fix that improves the way trains operate through this section of rail.

During initial work, customers will board A Line trains on Track 1 at 38th•Blake and 40th•Colorado stations. Check station platform signs or visit RTD’s Service Disruptions page for more information.
