Proposed June 2026 Service Changes

RTD’s Proposed June 2026 Service Changes aim to improve the customer experience, advance the System Optimization Plan, and support the final phases of the Downtown Rail Reconstruction Project. The updates focus on boosting bus and rail reliability and on-time performance based on community feedback, travel patterns, ridership trends, seasonal demand, economic factors, and available resources.

You can view all the proposed changes below, and learn more by watching our presentation in English or Spanish.

Customer feedback on the Proposed June Service Changes was collected through Wednesday, March 4. Thank you to all who participated!

Once the RTD Board of Directors reviews and considers all feedback, final changes will be determined and take effect Sunday, June 7.

Proposed June 2026 Service Changes

In addition to the routes listed in the below cards, there are also proposed changes to the following services:

Denver Tech Center FlexRide - Schedule Timing

Proposed Changes: Expand weekday service hours to 7:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m. and add Saturday service from 7:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m.

Reason: Increase availability and service coverage.

Platte Valley FlexRide - Service Reduction

Proposed Changes: It is proposed to discontinue operations of the Platte Valley FlexRide service.

Reason: Due to continued low customer utilization (averaging fewer than 0.6 customers per hour or 8 customers per day) the Platte Valley FlexRide is recommended for discontinuation. The service, introduced in August 2019 to replace the underperforming Route 33 (Platte Valley), has not achieved sufficient ridership. Alternative service is available through the Denver Connector West, which overlaps much of the FlexRide service area.
